David Bowerman

David Bowerman was born in 1936 and took a BSc degree before a long career in farming. Family duties did not allow any form of musical training and his knowledge of musical matters is largely self-taught. It was only after retirement that he and his wife built "The Music Room" at their home, Champs Hill, and musical interest was re-kindled. This has opened vast opportunities to present classical music to the people of Sussex, to give young artists the chance to play in public and to make recordings.

Christine Brewer

Grammy Award winning American soprano Christine Brewer’s appearances in opera, concert and recital are marked with her own unique timbre, at once warm and brilliant, combined with a vibrant personality and emotional honesty reminiscent of the great sopranos of the past. Her range, golden tone, boundless power, and control make her a favorite of the stage as well as a sought-after recording artist.

Cheryl Frances-Hoad

"At a time when it is harder and harder for young composers to establish a distinctive voice - too many styles, too much music easily available to them - Frances-Hoad's approach is individual, quirky perhaps, but distinctly special."
