I am writing to alert you to two forthcoming events, one online and the other in-person:
1. Online Friday Forum, 12 November at 2.00pm British time. Zoom invitation is below. All welcome.
Our first speaker is Andra Patterson from the British Library. Her presentation is titled: ‘Bearing witness: the papers of Peter Maxwell Davies at the British Library’. To complement Andra’s presentation, our second speaker, Nicholas Jones (Cardiff University), will be focusing on Davies’s opera The Doctor of Myddfai. He will be discussing how the sketches and other primary source material available for this work can be used to unveil the creative process.
