Voices of Frome

Local composer Verity Standen has been working with Terrestrial to interview Frome residents with very different life experiences and perspectives on the town. The conversations have been wide-ranging: from daily life to past adventures and ideas for the future.

Verity has then created an original piece of vocal music inspired by each person’s stories. These songs will be performed live for the first time by an ensemble of wonderful singers. Expect rich a cappella harmony and beautiful details of everyday life.

Voices of Frome is part of Terrestrial’s ongoing work in Frome to bring together artists and community groups for unique creative adventures. Learn more about Terrestrial.

Verity will be joined for this performance by singers from HOWL.
