Spring 2025 will see the tenth anniversary of the completion of the Pembridge Tapestries, which are on permanent display in St Mary’s Church.
In celebration of this anniversary, I have completed a suite of twelve new songs, one for each tapestry, for performance, alongside video projections of the tapestries and narrations on the themes illustrated. I plan for a simple run-through of this material at a workshop session in the coming weeks, with the aim of offering a full performance event in early 2025.
I would welcome the involvement of a wider group of singers, instrumentalists, and narrators from the village community, and invite any interested performers to contact me (andytd73@gmail.com) and to attend the workshop session to see whether they would like to participate in this project.
It is likely to appeal to those who enjoy tradition-based folk music, folklore, and the popular songs of yesteryear.
