Hi East Dulwich


I'm a composer and conductor from Bristol recently moved to the area.

I'm currently working with the LMA Orchestra based in central London -

I used to run a small mixed ensemble back in Bristol -


What I'd like to do is get together a relaxed bunch of local / semi-local musicians and work on performing some new work by local and young composers in and around the local area - Churches, Pubs, etc...


I intend to seek out approachable music, that is not too hard to play... I can also get composers to make alterations to works to suit our group.


It would be awesome...! We could probably strike up a relationship with a pub or similar to have a regular 'live' rehearsal somewhere, on a quiet night... also in my experience, an ensemble like that will often get invited to other (community) arts events, and will get invited to work with local students, etcetera... which is all quite good fun.


Get in touch if you have an instrument, can read a little music, and think you could spare one night every two weeks for a get together.


ta!

AcedOut - you're on!


Ive had a few PMs about this, quite a good response, but we need more to make it worthwhile!!


So consider this a note of quiet encouragement.


I should emphasise that we'll be able to cater for all levels of reading and playing, so dont be shy.

A fair amount of contemporary composition is graphic and/or improvised anyway, and minimalism is trending at the mo, so its not going to be too much of a challenge to start with.


I put Classically Trained mainly in reference to reading music, but untrained musicians are more than welcome as are non-classical instruments.


Get in touch people!!! We can do something important, rewarding, and fun.

    • Big recommendation for Stephen Viccary who has created a magnificent bathroom for us. Quality of work is absolutely top notch. We couldn't be happier - see pics.  Stephen is considerate and tidy meaning working from home during the work was fine (some noise - obviously, it is a demo and installation after all. He does not work on multiple jobs, does a full days work and does ALL the work himself - Tiling, plumbing, lighting (including lighting on a motion sensor under the vanity and in the shower niche - for night time visits 😉), he even changed the door architraves, sorted the badly cracked ceiling and did all the paint work. A full end to end service. Stephen's number - 07941 266 145
    • Highly recommend Dulwich Eco Gardening.  When he came to quote Saied said he’d give our garden back so we could decide what we do next.  Under two weeks of hard work from Saied and Mo and we have the garden back and can see paving I’d forgotten about. Not only did Saied remove our very overgrown greenery. Nature had taken over. He also took back to our fence line overgrown ivy, apple and pear trees and and dealt with a neighbours bamboo that had invaded our garden.  We are now going to get quotes for what we do next so those quoting will be able to see the space.  Saied has suggested someone to quote and will be coming back when he does in case he has any questions or they can work together.  I thought Saied would be a good choice and he was. Quotes from others didn’t leave me with confidence for the end result. That was never a concern with Saied.
    • Having a BBQ (fingers crossed) in 2 weeks and need a small BBQ for veggie bits and any spare benches or garden tables and chairs to borrow to add to mine. Any going? Thanks in advance...
