Spring Manoeuvres
A Radiophonic Documentary
In 1986 Nigel Morgan was appointed by the Eastern Arts board
as composer in the community to North Norfolk. He was based at Wells-next-the-Sea
and for two months composed and animated music working collaboratively with
all kinds and types of music and musician. Prior to this extended residency
Nigel had been busy as one of the small number of music animateurs operating
throughout the UK supported by the Arts Council and Regional Arts Boards.
Nigel's area was East Anglia, and from 1981 to 1988 he worked alongside
communities and schools, and with both amateur and professional musicians
and ensembles, including several of the region's fine youth orchestras,
to facilitate a broad range of music-making. His work was often with undertaken
with a special emphasis on new music and new technology. He came to Norfolk
in late February 1986 with two commissions: a work for chorus and orchestra
for the Norfolk County Youth Orchestra, and a radiophonic music documentary
for the BBC that would capture something of music making and the sound world
of North Norfolk. |
