St James’s Bushey
30 High St, Bushey WD23 3HL, UK (Google Maps)
I’m returning to the tranquillity of St. James’s Bushey, for a recital that spans old and new.
The featured graphic is an underwater escalator. I wanted to express the way music carries us through our lives, through troubled waters.
The recital opens with a fairly new work by London-based composer Robert Ely. Following that, we’ll be surrounded by forlorn mists and threatening oceans, topped off by a jazzy spiritual based on “Wade in the Water”
Bushey is an idyllic semi-rural area near Watford, north London.
Free entry, with a retiring collection.
Robert Ely: Spanish Dance Etudes, nos. 1–4: cante intermedio, tango, zapateado, jota
Leoš Janáček: V mlhách (in the mists)
Alexander Scriabin: Sonata-fantasy (Sonata no. 2) in G-sharp minor, op. 19
Margaret Bonds: Troubled water
The venue is accessible. There is a fixed ramp at the entrance.
The nearest accessible stations are: Stanmore and Watford Junction. There are bus services from there to Red Lion PH stop, outside the church
