The Pied Pipers of Harlow
Listen to Harlow: the new town's musical life from orchestras and choirs to jazz and pop.
Listen to Harlow: the new town's vibrant musical life, professional and amateur, from orchestras and choirs to jazz and pop, is revealed by this attractive documentary. Produced by the ever agile Derrick Knight & Partners, this project spun off their earlier film Faces of Harlow (1964), which had been sponsored by the town's Development Corporation to promote the area.
This musical follow-up was not sponsored but rather was independently produced by Knight and team, in a co-production arrangement with the BBC, who broadcast it on a Tuesday evening at 9:45pm on BBC1, while the producers retained the rights and distributed it non-theatrically.

Performing Arts: Music
Celebrating the joy and expression of music beyond the mainstream
In this latest addition to the performing arts series, we are taking a look at all things music beyond the mainstream; from choir rehearsals and pirate radio coverage, to buskers, festivals and workshops, it's clear that music has remained integral not only to culture and the evolution of arts, but to each of us in our day to day!
Many established music artists have been at the helm of sonic exploration, redefining genres and challenging the familiar ways in which sound can be experienced. But shifting the perspective away from multi-platinum pop stars and established performers, this collection is a celebration of the hobbyists, the amateur & the unrefined love of an art form that builds communities and allows for complete self expression
