Have your say »Review: The Merchant of Venice, Shakespeare Live! Hazelbury Manor, Box
4:42pm Tuesday 7th July 2009
When Graham Paton, as Antonio, opened Shakespeare Live's production of The Merchant of Venice by declaiming “I know not why I am so sad,” he may have been being slightly economical with the truth.
Review: City of Bath Bach Choir with the Will Todd Trio, Wiltshire Music Centre
12:01pm Monday 6th July 2009
It’s inevitable, emotionally, I suppose that most of the attention would focus on the first half of this programme because of the appearance of the Junior Choir but, musically and significantly, the second half, featuring Will Todd’s Mass in Blue, was monumental.
Review: The Apple Cart by George Bernard Shaw, Theatre Royal Bath
3:59pm Monday 6th July 2009

Corsham Festival: Makrokosmos, Nicholas Keyworth, piano; Julia Leyden, visuals
2:21pm Tuesday 30th June 2009
One shouldn’t expect this immensely challenging festival to produce anything ordinary. This concert was totally extraordinary; intense, gripping and deeply moving.
Corsham Festival: Retorica Duo, Harriet Mackenzie and Philippa Mo violins, St Bartholomew’s Church
2:25pm Tuesday 30th June 2009
Few could have expected this concert to have been so good. Dressed in matching white and white these two young, attractive violinists made a charming picture standing in front of a too-small audience; when they started to play it was a case of not just pretty faces… Mozart’s Duo for 2 violins, from the Piano Sonata in D major, K. 311, was a touch hurried causing a phrenetic, somewhat muddy final movement.
Corsham Festival: Counterpoise: The Power of Love
2:28pm Tuesday 30th June 2009
Violin, saxophone, trumpet and piano produce a dramatic sound effect: Add a narrator with a voice that can coerce with her rich European timbre or instil foreboding with clipped crystalline consonants and there is a basis for high drama.
Corsham Festival: Hannah Marcinowicz, saxophone, Daniel Swain, piano
2:06pm Tuesday 30th June 2009
Finely balanced playing with telling accenting showed how well saxophone and piano can blend.
