SUMMARY:Blackdowns Early Music Projects - The King's Flutes

The ensemble first came together while studying at the renowned Swiss music centre\, Schola Cantorum Basiliensis.\nIn England\, one of the greatest patrons of the arts was Henry VIII who developed the cultural and musical splendour of the Tudor court\, and it is music of this time that the members of Phaedrus are bringing to Culmstock in October.

SUMMARY:Reg Meuross
DESCRIPTION:Somerset’s own troubadour. The breadth and depth of his material is unparalleled in contemporary folk: songs about forgotten heroes\, famous names\, folk legends\, the climate emergency\, tales from the kitchen sink and news from the world stage.\nSomeone said: ‘If something needs to be sung about then Reg Meuross has a song for it!’ And this proved to be the case when Reg performed here in February 2020 with a especially composed song about Westonzoyland. Challenged by a resident in 2010 to write a song about the village\, the composition became a moving tribute to the many who fought and died in the Battle of Weston in 1685\, and travesty of justice that followed.\nMeuross has the gift of being able to touch people through his songs and performance\, painting pictures that remain with the listener long after the song has been sung.\n“I’m happy to be returning to sing in this beautiful church\, to a wonderful audience and community\,” says Reg. \nAs usual\, the concert will take place in in St Mary’s Church\, Main Road\, Westonzoyland\, TA7 0EP. Starting at 3 pm with refreshments served from 2.15 pm.  \nThere is no need to book but please note seats are available on a first come\, first served basis.\nIn order to help with the artists’ and other costs we hold a raffle. In addition\, we welcome donations.

SUMMARY:Arquebus
DESCRIPTION:Arquebus is a dynamic Somerset based folk trio formed by local guitarist\, Sam Patten. With a mixture of foot stomping fiddle tunes and upbeat songs\, playing with the energy of a band that loves what it does\, this is not to be missed. The programme will be a mixture self-written songs and traditional tunes- jigs\, reels and hornpipes.\n‘The name is a long story\, says Sam Patten\, ‘but basically an arquebus was one of the first types of musket from the 15th century. It all comes from a comment someone made when we first started about how the arquebus was a bit hit & miss and you would basically set fire to it and hope for the best. Our bass player joked that it was a bit like our playing and the name stuck.’\nHe added: ‘Yeah we just liked the sound of it and again as our bass player is fond if saying\, much like the gun there’s a certain amount if backfiring!’
