Anna Phoebe: Sea Souls
Event details
Violinist and composer Anna Phoebe is delighted to present her most recent album ‘Sea Souls’.
In March 2020, Anna was asked to produce a 10-minute music package for a radio arts programme. Inspired by her love of the ocean, she sat on the beach, watched the tide come and go and let creativity take over. From this short piece of programming, ‘Sea Souls’ was born, envisaged as a ‘Dear Diary’ to the sea, the seashore and Anna’s beloved Kent coast, where she lives.
Come along to experience the comfort and inspiration of the ocean, beautifully conveyed by Anna and her violin.
Anna will be joined by Klara Schumann and Jacob Kingsbury Downs.
