Student musicians from the University will be taking part in the Canterbury Festival’s Beautiful Noise<\/em> project at Westgate Hall on Saturday 23rd October.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The project brings together players from local educational establishments, including Simon Langton Grammar School, St Edmund’s School and the King’s School, as part of a day of community music-making in this year’s festival, and brings the whole day to what promises to be a rousing conclusion with big band jazz and swing under the direction of Head of Performance at St Edmund’s School, Ian Swatman<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

“It’s very exciting to be bringing young players in the region together to play such great music.” enthuses Ian, “empowering the performers and audiences of tomorrow, and giving them a platform as part of Canterbury’s international celebration of the arts.”<\/p>\n

Students from the School of Law and the School of History will be amongst the saxophone and brass sections of the ensemble that night; find out more here<\/strong><\/a>,<\/p>\n
