Our former director of music, Shea Lolin was in Prague last weekend for recording sessions with the woodwind section of the Czech Philharmonic. They recorded music for the woodwind orchestra by Keiron Anderson, Judith Bingham OBE, Charlotte Harding and Christopher Hussey and Kamran Ince (see our previous news item).

Christopher Hussey was present as Producer;;he was joined by Engineer Jonas Persson and Colin Izod who filmed the recording sessions. Colin is Chair of BWE.

All the music recorded had been commissioned by BWE and we are looking forward to listening to the album when it is available.

As it celebrates its 30 anniversary, BWE will be playing these works: Alice in Wonderland by Keiron Anderson, Mozart’s Pets by Judith Bingham OBE, Twisted Skyscape by Chris Hussey and The Infernal Train by Shea Lolin as part of its ‘Looking Back’ concert in May this year.
