Today we have a choice from George of the Norwich group. Berlioz’s ‘March to the Scaffold’ from his Symphonie Fantastitique with its surreal, hallucinatory atmosphere.

Thanks George

Two from the Norwich Group.

First we have Gavin’s choice. Because of licensing restrictions the video will not play  on the website but if you click on the play arrow the video will appear at the  the bottom of the frame  click on it and it will take you to You Tube where the song will play although you may have to listen to an advert.

Thank you Gavin

Next up is Ian’s Choice topical choice. Because of licensing restrictions the video will not play  on the website but if you click on the play arrow the video will appear at the along the bottom of the frame  click on it and it will take you to You Tube where the song will play although you may have to listen to an advert.

Thank you Ian.

While we are not able to meet due to Coronavirus we have decided to ask members of Culture Quest to nominate tracks to be put on the website. It is clearly no replacement for meeting and listening together, however it can still provide a way of keeping in touch and listening to a wide range of music that others have chosen as well as sharing a track of your choice.

It is expected that the Listening Diary will reflect the diversity of music that is normally chosen in a Culture Quest meeting. (See our playlist pages)

George started us off last week and this week Tom from the Norwich group has chosen.

Thank you Tom.

We will post new tracks every 3 or 4 days while we are unable to meet.

George has chosen this recording of Beethoven’s 3rd (Eroica) Symphony. Thank you George.

Tomorrows group 17/03/20 will be cancelled due to the announcement re Coronavirus this afternoon. We are taking this action as we have been told to reduce social contact. Those regular members who are on the text circle feel free to ring if you want more information.

We will keep you updated.

Don’t forget what a good thing listening to music can be at these difficult times. 

Stravinsky’s Rite of Spring was recently chosen by a Norwich group member an engaging listen. We only could play the first 8 mins here you can listen the the whole piece.

It is all so good, the second guitar melody makes everything sparkle.

Next Bury Date will be Tuesday 22nd at 2pm at the Hunter Club, Bury St Edmunds.

Next Date for the Norwich will be Monday 28th at Norwich Arts Centre at 12.30 pm. (there is no group on Monday 21st)
