'Piano at the Movies' - in which Bexhill Choral Society's Director of Music Kenneth Roberts explores some of the wonderful piano music composed or borrowed for the film industry - is at 7.30 on Friday 14th June (this week!) at Little Common Community Centre, Shepherds Close, Bexhill TN39 4SQ.
There is a great deal of marvellous piano music either borrowed from the music of great composers or composed specially for the film industry. The 1940s were the golden years of this ‘piano boom’, and film makers of later decades employed the music of such diverse composers as Mozart and Scott Joplin. Kenneth Roberts uses his skill as pianist and raconteur to explore some of this music in an entertaining evening held in association with the Bexhill Festival of Music.
Tickets are £12 from Second Spin, 14 Sackville Rd, Bexhill TN39 3JL (cash); choir members; online from ticketsource.co.uk/bcs, or Ticketsource phone box office 0333 666 3366; or on the door (booking advised). Refreshments will be available.

We have just started rehearsals for our October concert singing a range of British choral music so if you've ever thought of joining a choir - or know someone else who might be interested - this would be a good time to join. You would be very welcome to come along to a rehearsal and try it out for a couple of weeks free of charge. For more information see our website at bexhillchoral.org.uk or email info@bexhillchoral.org uk.
