Where	Lupton Hall, Bedales School (map) Church Rd Steep Petersfield, Hampshire, UK GU32 2DG
Other Info	8pm, Saturday 15th November 2014 at the Lupton Hall, Bedales School in Hampshire. 'Pedal Folk' And 'Three Cane Whale' present a musical celebration of Edward Thomas's work and life during the annual Edward Thomas Symposium. -------------------------------- This April 'Pedal Folk' loaded up their bicycles with two guitars and a violin and undertook a musical recreation of the 1913 London to Somerset cycle journey made by Edward Thomas in his book 'In Pursuit Of Spring'. Their performances include original songs crafted using Thomas's words and imagery, readings from 'In Pursuit Of Spring' and songs and tunes mentioned and loved by Thomas and/or collected in areas he passed through. ‘Excellent, uncluttered and accomplished; their enjoyment and passion is obvious and unfeigned’ (Folk Radio UK) ‘What an incredible evening. Edward Thomas would have loved it!’ (Emma Craigie – Chair of the Wells Literature Festival) -------------------------------- Fans of 'Three Cane Whale' who have poured over their sleeve-notes, will already know that Thomas's poetry has been a significant inspiration for them. For those of you who don't yet know this brilliant multi-instrumental Bristol trio (with a line-up including mandolin, harmonium, bowed psaltery, miniature harp, trumpet, and dulcitone), you are in for a treat. ‘Perfect. A glorious adventure into new folk’ (Cerys Matthews, BBC Radio / Sunday Telegraph) ‘The aroma of muddy leaves and old nettles is almost tangible: a delight’ (Neil Spencer, The Observer) -------------------------------- Tickets available soon via http://www.bedales.org.uk/events1 -------------------------------- Edward Thomas is one of our country’s unsung literary heroes, whose work deals with themes that still have huge resonance today such as the encroachment of industry and large scale mechanised agriculture into the natural world and the search for traditional values and national heritage during uncertain times. Whilst many contemporary poets and musicians cite him as an influence, his poetry is little known and his prose even less. In 1917 Edward died tragically during the Great War and there is no better time than the present to reignite an interest in his work.
