    •  Great concert and great feedback on the premiered film music pieces! Good to meet yet another couple of people from the meetup group and some from the Radio 3 messageboards- who said classical/ art music doesn't benefit from online communities?!

       The Greek composers' music was lively with a lot of syncopation, and it made me want to dance. The performers were very informative and organized and described each upcoming piece with interesting detail. It was different to hear film music live without the actual film, and worthwhile to learn about each composer's backgrounds for writing the music for the films.
