We were back together this week beginning an exciting collaboration with @spitsmusic@stcatzoxford and @theothertoby
We are this years ensemble for the Henfrey - Spitalfields composition prize! The winning piece from the competition will be performed by us in Oxford in May, and the Spitalfields music festival shortly after.
We loved our first trip to Oxford- can’t wait for the next few trips to workshop the pieces!
No prizes for us but we were so chuffed to be nominated in two categories alongside such insane talent in this year’s @bbcmusicmag awards. V surreal having our lil trombone quartet album up on a screen with all the famous people 🌞
We’re stoked to be heading to the @bbcmusicmag awards ceremony tonight. We’ve been nominated in two categories and it’s all very exciting. In other news I picked loads of wild garlic yesterday which is nice. Spring has sprung 🌼
We’re excited to see this great review of our recent album from @the_arts_desk ‘Sweaty and unpredictable: Slide Action’ - we’ll take that description!
‘It’s rare to find a contemporary music anthology where every new work so surely hits the mark, and this is an album that you’ll want return to often. Playing and production values are superb’
