Our partner in Durban, South Africa - indigenous music leader Victor Sithole

Our projects

2025!


St.Just Schools - March/April

We're working with St.Just Primary and Cape Cornwall Secondary schools for the second time, providing creative writing and music composition sessions on the themes of celebrating friendship and cultural diversity.


Bagas an Norvys

We're proud to be leading St.Ives' civic "World Band", comprising a bunch of lovely local musicians, including St.Ives Concert Band. After a fantastic Feast Day in February, we're hoping to accompany the dancers at May Day on 5th May and perhaps lead more music and dance events later in the year.


New Wood Symphony

We're continuing our work with four groups of young people from North Cornwall at our new Symphony Woods site, Inspired by immersive visits to the woods and the moor, participants have already made a great start towards composing a new piece of music in symphonic form.


Lights of St.Ives

A new song and film about fishing in St.Ives, with a proper local vocal turns by our friend Katrina Geraghty and our very own Sylvie Nicol. Another opportunity to celebrate St.Ives' heritage - again, we're lucky enough to have access to some new archive photographs that will be included in our film.


Kernow-Zulu Connection

We've been collaborating with indigenous music leader Victor Kabile Sithole and a primary school in Kwazulu Natal province, South Africa. We fundraised to buy 30 pairs of school shoes, a donation celebrated by the pupils in a livestream performance of their traditional music and dance.

Victor has since drawn on his own traditions and the hard realities of life in rural South Africa  to present a wider perspective of our song "These Shoes" - poetic, resonant and compelling. We're dying to get this finished so we can share as soon as possible! 

In the meantime, Victor and his friends are bringing their magic to a new version of our song "Where Sunbeams Fall"


Tall-tail Tom (film)

We've just completed our second animated film with incredible St,Ives artist Fred Williams. This one is about the (possible) dark origins of a famous St.Ives riddle - all to our original soundtrack.  


Tom's Tall Tail (film)

A spin-off from the above, this short film features numerous submitted photos of cats from around the town; again to an original soundtrack.


Both films are set for wider release in 2025.


The Promise (film)

A story of "what goes around comes around" during life's bumpy ride. Currently in production, with an original soundtrack featuring Sylvie and Treve Nicol on vocals. Perhaps appropriately, this has turned into a stop-start project, reflecting our own ups and downs -  but it'll happen this year!
