CD Update & Charity Concert Season
Cadenza has completed the recording of our new CD, and we’re excited to hear the first cut of the recording (due in the next couple of weeks) while our production team is working hard on the mastering and mixing of the final product. Quite what we’ll all think of listening to Christmas music as the weather is (hopefully) starting to change we’re not sure – but nevertheless it’s something we are all looking forward too.
No rest for the wicked however, and our day-to-day focus has now turned to our charity concerts which this year are both taking place in Edinburgh. These concerts provide a chance to hear Cadenza perform a wide mix of often lighter repertoire as well as listen to some guest artists.
The first of these concerts takes place on Saturday 12 May at St Cuthbert’s Parish Church on Lothian Road, and will be in aid of the Friend’s of St Cuthbert’s in support of their work for the church. It’s a great acoustic, and one that we are all deeply familiar with now having spent hours of recording time there in February! We’re delighted to welcome guitarist Ian Watt as our guest artist for this concert.
A few weeks later we’ll be at St Peter’s Church, Lutton Place, this time raising money on behalf of St Andrew’s Children’s Society who are doing great work providing fostering and adoption services and support around our captital city. We’ll be joined by the Edinburgh Guitar Orchestra for this concert, who are sure to dazzle with original compositions for guitar ensemble and also arrangements of more familiar orchestral pieces.
As always directions, timings and ticket information for both of these concerts is available on our Concerts page. We really hope to see you at these concerts supporting these two worthwhile local causes.
