Folk meets classical- AMAZING!!!!!

BBC Radio 3’s award-winning Delia Stevens and three time BBC Radio 2 Folk Musician of the Year nominee, Will Pound, deliver an unprecedented collaboration, following the creative evolution of the classical composers inspired by folk.

They have stumbled upon a completely new world of sound, they combine the traditional instruments of Pound’s melodeon and harmonica with the dizzying array of Stevens’ percussion, and then let their imaginations run riot whilst paying homage to their respective musical roots.

They are TRIFFIC! And in Calstock 13th September! Link in bio.

19 September: From Honey Bees to Dairy Cattle- Double Bill
Man has intervened in nature and his effect has been profound. Calstock Arts is proud to present two speakers looking at aspects of this – Michael Head and Dale Wood

Vet, Michael (Spike) Head will look at:

‘The Challenges and Solutions of Dairying in the ‘New World’

Michael will cover the changes in the dairy industry, both local and global, that have occurred through his career. With the environment and sustainability in mind references will be made to cow health, medicine use and the management of the environment. The talk is sure to generate discussion.

Apiarist, Dale Wood will speak on:

‘Honey Bees…and Almost Everything Else’

Honey bees are amazing creatures. Their life cycle from egg to adult is a biological wonder. The evolution started when dinosaurs ruled the Earth. They came through several mass extinctions and they survive still despite the damage done to their habitat. This touches on many aspects of honeybee life, and the struggles imposed on them, often by us.

*Both speakers have most kindly agreed that all proceeds from ticket sales will go directly to funding the purchase of a new projector for the main hall at Calstock Arts.
