SUMMARY:Music on the Levels: Daisy Chapman
DESCRIPTION:Daisy Chapman is an incredibly well-travelled pianist and vocalist who draws influences from the anti-folk world. Every song harbours a dark story of love\, lust and loss told through her exquisite voice and piano\, with Sue Lord on violin bringing the performance to harmonious ending every time.\nSince her first solo release in 2006\, Daisy has proven herself as a talented and shrewd songwriter in demand. Three albums have been recorded by renowned producer Ali Chant at Toybox Studios (PJ Harvey\, Gruff Rhys\, Giant Sand\, Seasick Steve)\, the most recent (She Took Flight 2023) was recorded at Studio Nord\, Bremen DE and Nine Volt Leap\, Wiltshire UK.\nIn 2009 Daisy’s piano style and versatility was noticed by UK prog rockers Crippled Black Phoenix (Seasons of Mist Records)\, and since then on and off Daisy has travelled as pianist/BV with the band on tours covering every corner of Europe as well as a short trip to China. Daisy was also chosen as vocalist on their cover of ACDC’s “Let Me Put My Love Into You” which was used in Classic Rock Magazine’s cover CD – a stark departure from her wistful singing style\, proving her adaptability in musical genres.\nIn 2012 Daisy teamed up with violinist Sue Lord. The duo have been playing together ever since\, bringing a sonic dynamic to her music\, the violin almost acting as an additional voice. As a backing singer for well-known artists\, she has proven her skills many times. As a performer\, Daisy Chapman has a appeared at Glastonbury\, 2000Trees\, Migration Festival (Taiwan)\, Breminale (Germany) and worldwide tours. One of her songs (a cover of Rihanna’s ‘Umbrella’) won an Independent Music Award which was jusdged by Tom Waits – this certainly raised her profile with her peers.\nThe 2023 album ‘She Took Flight’ was arranged and written by Daisy with Red Carousel quartet on strings. Daisy’s love of string instruments (as featured heavily in 2009 ‘The Green Eyed’) is now ever more apparent and her skill at scoring has certainly grown over the years.\nIn addition to her solo work\, her newest project is prog band ‘Venus Principle’ where she shares lead vocals with ex CBP singer Daniel Anghede\, their debut album was released on Prophecy Records in 2022.

SUMMARY:Somerset County Orchestra Concert
DESCRIPTION:  \nFor the Summer Concert on Saturday 17th June\, the Somerset County Orchestra has a glittering collection of musical jewels for everyone to enjoy. Join us to savour the sparkling magic of Tchaikovsky’s fairy-tale Nutcracker Suite\, and enjoy the bustle and excitement of a quick trip round the capital with the delightful London Suite by Eric Coates. Originally written for a pantomime\, the Spanish composer Manuel de Falla’s Three Cornered Hat Suite is overflowing with remarkable imagination and flair. You can also thrill to the drama and emotion played out in the themes of rebellion\, love and betrayal in Khachaturian’s Spartacus\, and experience the inventive and dazzling sound journey that is Stravinsky’s Firebird Suite. So many treats in one evening! The concert will be in the lovely setting of St James’ Church\, Taunton\, starting at 7:30pm on Saturday 17th June 2023.

SUMMARY:Blackdowns Early Music Projects – Spirit of the Blues
DESCRIPTION:The first Third Thursday of 2023 starts with a new sort of early music\, blues and spirituals dating from around a century ago\, sung by Julia Titus with Steve Graham on cornet and Mike Denham on keyboard. Both Steve and Mike are well known on the Jazz circuits in the South West and further afield\, being part of the nationally acclaimed Sunset Cafe Stompers. They frequently work with Julia Titus\, an actress\, poet\, singer and songwriter. Among her talents is the ability to convincingly put over the songs of that great blues & vaudeville singer of the 1920s\, Bessie Smith. Building on her passion for the ‘Empress of the Blues’\, Julia started to perform as Ma Bessie\, sharing the music of Ms Smith and her contemporaries with a new generation of listeners. Expect to hear classics including ‘Careless Love’\, ‘Nobody Knows When You’re Down And Out’\, ‘Gimme A Pig Foot (And A Bottle Of Beer)’\, and of course ‘Hot Time in the Old Town Tonight’\, all delivered with verve and style. The programme\, in this lovely venue\, will be completed with a selection of Gospel numbers\, another genre in which Julia delights!

SUMMARY:Lunchtime Concert - My Spirit Sang All Day
DESCRIPTION:The Wilbye Quartet\nFour voices got together during Covid restrictions and have continued singing since then\, performing music both sacred and secular in the South West. \nOur programme for Spring 2023 is a survey of English Song spanning seven centuries\, from Greensleeves and the first known round\, through the Renaissance period to the late 19th – early 20th century. \nThe richness and scope of English song repertoire through the centuries presents a huge problem for the Quartet: how to limit the programme to under an hour? The result of many hours of trying out pieces\, we have cherry-picked some of the best known and loved songs through the ages\, as well as a few of our personal favourites. \nThough the list can’t be comprehensive we have tried to present a thumbnail sketch\, with music by Henry VIII\, Byrd\, Dowland\, Wilbye\, Tallis and Purcell to Elgar\, Finzi\, and Vaughan Williams and others. \nDrinks will be available before the concert. \nThere will be a retiring collection in aid of St Margaret’s Hospice and St John’s Church. \nThis event has been sponsored by Invest SW
