Adam Pounds composed " #London Cantata" in 2017. This work returns to Pounds' city of birth, reflecting on the historical diversity of life in the capital, set to the words of Wilfred Owen, Amy Levy, George Eliot and William Wordsworth, among others.

[#]introduction

Adam Pounds is the #conductor of our #orchestra

He is also a composer. As orchestra players, it's a wonderful and privileged experience to play his music: it's not common in the life of a #classicalmusic musician to be able to discuss the work with the composers themselves!

🎼

You can read more about his work 🎶 on his #wikipedia page: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adam_Pounds
