| | The English Arts Chorale was established in 1980 by Leslie Olive, our Artistic Director. We are amateur singers with busy lives and come from all walks of life. But we all share a great love of the great choral works.
We rehearse and perform to the highest possible standard and one of our hallmarks is that whenever possible we like to perform entire choral works from memory. Works that we have performed in this way include the Mozart's Requiem and Mass in C Minor, Verdi's Requiem, Haydn's Nelson Mass, and Fauré's Requiem. We have performed with top orchestras and soloists on the South Bank and in cathedrals around the United Kingdom, but we also enjoy putting together a full programme each year for music lovers in the Surrey/Sussex area. We have made a CD and radio recordings. Recent repertoire works include, Bach's Mass in B Minor, Handel's Messiah, Carl Orff's Carmina Burana, Poulenc's Gloria, Vivaldi's Gloria and various Palestrina masses.
We're a friendly bunch who rehearse in Reigate on Monday evenings. We always welcome new singers and if you are interested in finding out more, just come along to a rehearsal at 7.45 on a Monday and we will be happy to tell you more about ourselves. You can be sure of a warm welcome

| | The ensemble was established in 1967 under the name of Vestjysk Kammerensemble, but later the name was changed to Esbjerg Ensemble, more understandable to foreigners. For many years the ensemble consisted of ten musicians - a string quintet and a wind quintet, but from the season 1995-1996 the ensemble was extended with piano and percussion, which as if by magic added to the repertoire.

| | JULIO ESTRADA. Born in Mexico City, 1943. His family was exiled from Spain in 1941. Composer, theoretician, historian, pedagogue, he began his musical studies in Mexico (1953-65), where he studied composition with Orbón. In Paris (1965-69) he studied with Boulanger, Messiaen and attended courses and lectures of Xenakis. In Germany he studied with Stockhausen (1968) and with Ligeti (1972) Ph. D. in Music and Musicology at Strasbourg University (1994).
He has wrote about a hundred of articles based on his research. Some have been translated into English, French, German, Italian and Japanese. He is the General Editor of La Música de México (Instituto de Investigaciones Estéticas, IIE / UNAM, México 1984, ca. 2000 p.) He wrote with Jorge Gil Musica y Teoria de Grupos Finitos, 3 Variables Booleanas, with an English abstract (IIE UNAM, Mexico 1984). He has postulated a General Theory of Intervallic Classes, applicable to macro and micro-intervallic scales of duration and of pitch. In the field of the continuum he has developed new methods of multidimensional graphic register of the components of a continuum between rhythm and sound and a continuum between order and chaos, and sound and noise. El sonido en Rulfo (The sound in Juan Rulfo’s literature) is the research base for his opera Pedro Páramo.
In Mexico, since 1974 he became researcher in music at the Institute of Aesthetics, IIE/UNAM, where he was appointed as the Chair of several projects: Mexican Music History, Mexican Music Archives and Music: Interactive Computer System for Research and Composition for the study of the combinatory potential of scales. He is member of the National Scholars System of the Mexican Education Ministry since 1984 and member of the Science Academy of Mexico since 1997. He created a Composition Seminar at UNAM, where he teaches Compositional Theory and Philosophy of Composition. He has been a visiting professor at Stanford, California, San Diego, New Mexico, Musikwissenschaft Institut, Rostock, Darmstadt, Veruela, Scola Civica di Milano or the Centre de Création Musical Iannis Xenakis. In January 2001 he became research director of the CEMAMu, research center created by Iannis Xenakis. His works are mainly published by Editions Salabert, France. The French Ministry of Culture decorated him with the Ordre des Arts et des Lettres (1981, 1986).
“The techniques and theories I have developed are based on mathematics and acoustics ; the more neutral they remain, the better they serve the description of the imaginary : it is my ear that gives birth to my music, which becomes the accurate, almost phonographic representation, of every detail coming from my inner hearing experiences.” His music is associated to compositional research on diverse fields ; i.e. : scales, Suite, piano (1960); improvisational processes: Persona, vocal trio (1969); compositional mechanos, Memorias for a Keyboard (1971); finite groups theory, Melódica, (1973), Canto mnémico (1973-83); networks theory, Canto tejido, piano (1974), Canto alterno, cello (1978), Ensemble'yuunohui, strings (1983-90); new instrumental developments, Canto oculto, violin (1977); intervallic identities, Canto naciente, brass octet (1975-78); continuum macro-timbre and space sound distribution, eolo'oolin, six percussionists (1981-90); continuum, eua'on ; rhythm-sound components polyphony, the four yuunohui (1983-90); topological continuum variations, ishini’ioni, string quartet (1984-90); continuum-discontinuum modulation, yuunohui’tlapoa, harpsichord (1994-97); Pre-Columbian ceremonial conception of music, opera Pedro Páramo : “Doloritas” (1992-).

| | Marco Esu was born in San Gavino Monreale (a small town in Sardinia) on 16 December 1973. He took his first steps in the art world when he was just 8 years old, initially showing interest in the figurative arts. Subsequently, thanks to his sisters who were studying piano, Marco began to take an interest in music and with some help from them, he learned his first tunes. When he was about fifteen years old, Marco began to study the guitar and create his first melodies in his own distinctive style, eventually making him stand out from the others in his field. Being self-taught initially and listening to a wide range of musical styles, including Jazz, he grew to love improvisation, which will often feature widely in most of his concerts. Having studied the guitar for two years, Marco then decided to learn the technical side of music from Antonello Lixi, a guitarist he held in high esteem. Lixi taught him the technique and theory involved with his instrument and also instilled in him a passion for South American music, which was an important part of the maestro’s repertoire at the time. Marco also studied with other maestri like Patrice Graff (otherwise known as “Tito”), Jorge Cardoso at a specialisation course in classical guitar and other specialisation courses arranged by maestro Marco Meloni, the director of “la Nuova Accademia”. When he was sixteen, Marco began to play in bands as their solo guitarist, moving from one genre to another. This experience enabled him to learn more and more styles of music and taught him to appreciate the pleasure of performing for an audience, something that he adores. In 1994 Marco won a regional competition for electric guitars (solo 6 corde) by presenting improvised tunes for the guitar and a beautiful composition by guitarist Joe Satriani (Midnight). Marco performed with groups like Slamina and Wizard but it was Axioma that had considerable success with the public and also some journalists who wrote some interesting articles about them. Axioma’s musical genre was barely acceptable in Sardinia and was practically censored due to the band’s “Rock” style. However, thanks to their fans and concerts dedicated to Rock and Metal music, they were still able to perform their repertoire and produced their own CD. Axioma featured Marco Esu at the guitar, Giovanni Serra at the bass, Giuseppe Melis on drums and Emanuele Pittau was the singer and responsible for lyrics. Fabrizio Melas had been the band’s first drummer and it was with him that the band was initially formed. Marco took up his solo career again in 1996, setting his dear friend, song-writer and singer, Simone Uteri’s lyrics to music. Together with Simone, Marco was able to sing in various venues and musical festivals and some favourable articles were written about their artistic musical achievements and poetic work. Marco and Simone then formed another band, which they called S.A.A.S.D.N.A. The band, which specialised in experimental music, featured Andrea Ruggeri on drums and Stefano Porceddu on bass and were later joined by Emanuele Contis on the saxophone, Matteo Muntoni on the bass and Valentina Urban as the singer and on the violoncello. They performed the drummer’s compositions, which were arranged by the band. At the same time, Marco decided to also perform in the “Marco Esu Duo”, which participated in the Sant’Anna Arresi International Jazz Festival, one of the most important jazz events in Sardinia. Marco then worked with fashion designer, Zigno (who he respects and admires for his brilliance) and with him, he was able to perform his compositions live on television and in many other fashion parades with Sardinian designers of haute couture and famous models. It was thanks to the fashion parades that Marco was also able to work with the great Sardinian painter, Sergio Putzu, who is very interested in social problems and the maintenance of popular traditions. With all these experiences behind him, Marco then worked with the on-line newspaper, Capitanata.it and wrote a number of articles for their music section. The Internet proved to be invaluable for him in publicising his most recent work during September 2003. After an initial presentation period on their site, Marco signed a contract with Sabino Mogavero at Idyllium s.n.c., who found him ideal for his style of publishing. At the same time, his involvement with Italian sites like Jazzitalia.net and “Portare la musica - a group of young and famous Italian musicians, bound by the aim of offering music, a gift they themselves received, to those who would otherwise not have access to it. Offering high-level concerts to the disabled, the ill, elderly people, inmates, children in need, we try to contribute in destroying the walls of prejudice and selfishness and to realise an exchange of experiences and communication.” also helped him to learn a great deal and to raise his profile. Marco’s new CD was completed after this period and he called it “U.S.E. Angiola”. The CD features ten classic guitar tracks in various styles. The CD’s success enables him, together with his publisher at Idyllium, to obtain an international recording contract with Australian record producing company, Blue Pie Productions. It is thanks to its CEO, Damien Reilly, that the CD will be released in various countries, like Australia, the United States, New Zealand, Canada and Italy. The CD already appears on many soundtracks in Australia. Marco has many plans for the future, including a new CD and more musical and artistic publications. Autor Marco Esu Traslation by Adriana F.

In recent years Isabel has performed frequently as a soloist in Austria, the Czech Republic, Germany, France, Switzerland, the UK and USA. While she plays a varied repertoire from the 18th and 19th centuries, her primary interst is contemporary music and music from the 20th century. She works closely with many living composers. More and more composers have written or are writing works especially for her, including Richard Emsley, Erik-Michael Karlsson, Lydia Martin, Stephen Montague, HyeKyung Lee and Mia Zabelka.
Isabel likes to develop concert programmes with special themes. For example, in 1999 she played a recital "The Ghost of Chopin", containing Chopin-related works of seven twentieth century composers. She is also very intersted in all sorts of experimental piano techniques as playing inside the piano, prepared piano, playing with electronics etc. She has a special love for American music as by John Cage, Henry Cowell, Henry Brant, Stephen Montague, George Crumb, John Adams and many others.
One of her newest projects is called "Toy Piano on Tour". Based on John Cage's "Suite for Toy Piano" and repertoire pianist Margaret Leng Tan commissioned in the 90s of the 20th Century, Isabel wants to go further and commissioned several new works for this wonderful instrument.

| | Robert Farrell’s music has delighted and inspired a steadily growing audience. Combining elements of every era—Baroque richness, Classical clarity, and Romantic intensity—his compositions offer an exciting blend of magic and logic. “We live in interesting times,” says Farrell, noting that “imagination and innovation are developing hand in hand.” Joining natural gifts with modern recording techniques, the suites on his debut CD, Metaphysical Ignition, represent what Farrell calls “expressive art meets the 21st century.”
Farrell is President of Musicmint.com, a premier contemporary classical music website, winner of the Golden Web Award. The site includes downloads of Farrell’s inventive Quarks and Fantasias, free audio samples, insightful quotes and essays, as well as the Metaphysical Ignition CD, piano score and poster. The CD is also on sale at select New York City record stores. Farrell grew up in New York’s cultural hotbed of the 70’s, and studied improvisation briefly with the great jazz mentor Lennie Tristano. After studying Bach, Mozart and Beethoven, he gradually developed his own approach.
“Style is organic urgency,” says Farrell, a self-taught composer. Necessity became the mother of invention when his acoustic piano-needs became too large for his Kew Gardens studio. “A piano the size of a 9-foot Steinway requires huge studio space to sound it’s best,” he explains. “It was a stroke of fortune that my studio was not large enough, and I had to explore new possibilities.” He chose the digital piano for its powerful sound and remarkable clarity. Farrell brings a unique viewpoint to media interviews, on subjects ranging from the psychology of art to cultural trends. ###
