AROUND PLYMOUTH IN MUSIC AND PICTURES

AROUND PLYMOUTH IN MUSIC AND PICTURES is a combined book and CD published by Plymouth Music Accord. Taking part are PMA member organisations: Plymouth Symphony Orchestra, City of Plymouth Concert Band and Plymouth Area Police Choir plus solos from Marsha de Thornley Head (piano) and John Gibson (organ).

The pictures, most made by the Yealm U3A Photography Group plus historic images kindly supplied by local historian Chris Robinson, show places in and around the city from Dartmoor to the sea.

The 14 music tracks reflect the places shown in the book. Some are traditional songs but most items are by local composers: Ron Goodwin, Terence Higgins, Marsha de Thornley Head, Clive Jenkins and Judy Whitlock.

Profits will help support PMA's educational projects.

AROUND PLYMOUTH IN MUSIC AND PICTURES will be published in September 2021.
