FON 2011:PHILIP JECK LIVE AT STATION VIEW HOUSE, BARROW

 

Over the last few months Octopus has been visiting the residents of Station View House, playing records and talking about music, how we experience it and what it means to people . In the coming year we will be working on a project called Voices Of Station View, with the support of our County Council. Today  composer Philip Jeck performed for  the residents,  drawing on records sourced from local charity shops.  At the end of the performance a member of the audience told Philip ” I could have listened to that all day.”
