Spring Manoeuvres
An important part of the Spring
Manoeuvres residency was the production of The Sackhouse Tapes,
a 40 minute album of original songs written and recorded by North Norfolk
musicians and songwriters. For a period of a three weeks a 16 track
studio was installed in The Sackhouse Gallery at the Wells Centre. The studio
facilities complete with engineer, an assistant and producer on hand were
available FREE to people with or without prior experience of recording:
to experiment with ideas and novel partnerships; to discover just what recording
was all about; to find a personal voice or sound. The musicians who took
part in this unique Arts Council-funded project included a class of primary
schoolchildren, young adults from a local centre for people with learning
difficulties, a renaissance consort, several singer-songwriters, a reggae
band and dub artist, a classically trained singer, a jazz-rock drummer,
and a heavy-metal band. What is archived here is the final selection of songs
released on a limited edition cassette at the premiere of Spring Manoeuvres
in July 1986.
The Sackhouse Tapes was co-produced by Nigel Morgan and Gareth
Stuart with assistance from Nicola Lipp.
