Grammy award winning clarinettist Eddie Daniels will be the
very special guest at an event being held at St. Edmund’s School
Canterbury, on Saturday February 11th 2012. Eddie will be holding a
master class in the school theatre and appearing in the evening as a
soloist with The David Rees-Williams Trio.
This is a rare UK appearance from Eddie and, with tickets for the
master class and concert restricted, a sell out audience is expected.
St. Edmund’s has a strong musical tradition, being the home of the
Cathedral Choristers and the East Kent Children’s Orchestra, and
lists former BBC Young Musician of the Year Freddie Kempf among
its former pupils. The school has an on-going partnership with The
English Chamber Orchestra, holding master classes and workshops
throughout the academic year.
The day has been organised by CASS member Ian Swatman who is
Head of Instrumental Studies at St. Edmund’s. ‘Eddie doesn’t appear
in the UK very often and this is an amazing opportunity to see him
perform in the relatively intimate setting of our school theatre. It is
so exciting for the school and a chance see one of the world’s leading
musicians.’
Tickets will go on sale from mid-October and can be pre-ordered by
contacting Ian Swatman at
igs@stedmunds.org.uk
