March 2008 - Bath Philharmonia's Music Director, Jason Thornton, Commercial Manager, Ali Groves and another Educational specialist, Cor Anglais player Julie Payne, are currently in Kaposvar, Hungary - one of Bath’s twin cities.
In this exciting new project, the educationalists are spending 5 days in the city, working with and learning from music teachers and students there, with the aim of producing a short compositional piece which will be performed at a concert in the city. This will then be followed at a later date by a reciprocal visit to Bath from some of the Kaposvar students and their tutors.
Early reports tell that the city has a vibrant musical atmosphere although the hotels are "interesting" !!
