User:Security1234/The British Art Music Series

The British Art Music Series is a charitable music trust founded by Ben Fleetwood Smyth, former Academical Clerk at Christ Church, Oxford and graduate of The Royal Academy of Music. for the support and performance of British classical music. It produces one major Series per year which fuses British classical music with other art forms to create a self contained story. Each Series also establishes links with young musicians specifically to engage them with the British repetoire.

The Series will not be a redefinition of the arts and it will not be a revolution in the arts. But the Series will reconsider and rediscover and will celebrate and educate on art’s endurance and its potential for change.

First Series
The first Series will be in November 2010 and will feature the music of Sir John Tavener and Judith Bingham, two newly commissioned pieces by young British composers, and the performing talents of The London Contemporary Orchestra , Natalie Clein, and the choir of Kings College, London
