Following a set of workshops musicians from the Grand Union Youth Orchestra, and other community participants will put on there will be a public performance where workshop participants will be invited to play alongside the Grand Union musicians.
This performance will be a culmination of the material covered in both the ‘African/latin’ and ‘Asian’ workshops, as part of the Sound Out programme:
SOUND OUT LONDON’S LOST FISHING VILLAGE!
Trinity Buoy Wharf stands at the point at which the River Lea joins the Thames, now called “Leamouth” but formerly known as “Bow Creek”.
200 years ago Bow Creek was a remote fishing village. Today it is home to a wealth of creative industry supported by a vibrant community of artists and musicians. Where fisherman once sat mending their nets, Trinity Buoy Wharf now hosts many different community-based projects including the twice-yearly Water City Festival Orchestra in a Weekend event supported by Trinity Buoy Wharf Trust.
But, for many people, Trinity Buoy Wharf remains an undiscovered ‘Jewel of the Thames’. This is about to change on July 23 and 24 2011 when you are invited to come down to the Wharf and take part in a weekend of FREE family-friendly music and art funded by Trinity Buoy Wharf Trust and presented in association with Water City Festival.
