Brushstrokes at Gallery Different

Bedfordshire Woodwind Academy Flute Ensemble

Join the Bedfordshire Woodwind Academy Flute Ensemble at Gallery Different, Fitzrovia, for a performace of 'Brushstrokes', a suite of music created by Edgar Divver.

While browsing paint colours to redecorate his house, award-winning composer Edgar Divver was inspired to create a suite of music that explored that soundscapes the paint names evoked. The Flute Ensemble was paired with Edgar as part of Making Music's Adopt a Music Creator project and worked together during 2022 to create this original piece, which premiered at the Sky Gallery last year. 

Don't miss this exciting opportunity to hear Brushstrokes! This is what one audience member had to say after its premier in last year: “In contrast to the rather muted colours that inspired Brushstrokes, the Bedfordshire Woodwind Academy Flute Ensemble’s performance was vivid and rich. Each movement told its own distinct story from swirling scales of Green Mist and commanding weight from the bass flutes in Elephants Breath to the discordant rhythms of Red Earth. Borrowed Light provided a soothing ethereal interlude before an eye-watering squirt of Citron rounded off the piece. Fantastic!”
