English version of Annecy Animation Festival 2016

For my first visit to Annecy Animation Festival 2016  I wanted to learn as much from my fellow Festival goers and meet as many of them as  possible as well as gathering ideas for programming animation on Carn to Cove (www.carntocove.co.uk) film of popular titles.  So randomly determined by whom I met in the queue or sat down next to at a screening.  I asked them two questions:

1) What is your favourite Animation Feature of all time?
2)  What is your favourite Animation Short of all time?

Overcoming their shock at being addressed out of the blue by a complete stranger, everyone thought hard about this topic and here are the results :

Version en francais: 

Pendant ma première visite au Festival d'animation d'Annecy 2016, j'ai voulu apprendre un maximum de mes collègues présents au Festival et en rencontrer le plus grand nombre possible ainsi que glaner des idées pour programmer les animations de Carn to Cove (www.carntocove.co.uk)  avec des films populaires. C'est-à-dire choisis de manière aléatoire par ceux qui faisaient la file avec moi  ou qui étaient assis à mes côtés devant un écran.

 Je leur ai posé deux questions:

1)    quel est votre film d’animation préferé de tous les temps?
2)    quel est votre court-metrage préféré de tous les temps?





Une fois avoir surmonté le choc du à la façon inattendue dont un parfait inconnu s’est adressé à eux, les personnes ont réfléchi longuement sur ce sujet, et voici les résultats :

Cornwall Cello Voices

Friday 7th February 2020 Truro Catholic Church Cello Voices. Liz Brazier - widely regarded as the mother of cellists  in Cornwall  as Barbara Degener, the ensemble leader , called her at the close of this concert, has for some years run a cello weekend in the new year where cellists of all ages and abilities meet to work  and play together.   (she is actually the mother of Ben Hoagley one of the other performers - and celebrated a significant birthday today) Cornwall Cello Voices is a group of  eight of the rather more accomplished performers who have given concerts at the end of the weekend.   The sound of 8 cellos playing together in harmony is thrilling as recordings by the cellist of the Berlin Philharmonic in the 90s attest.  And this concert was certainly extremely well delivered with ensemble and balance between a frequent myriad of parts well judged. The cello's sonorous register makes it a favourite with many but the comparative lower register of the parts and th

Jennet Campbell MBE

On Friday we celebrated the life of Jennet Campbell in Gerrans Church with a tribute led by Emma Campbell her daughter, and readings by daughter Sally and friends.  Local poet and county councillor Bert Biscoe gave the eulogy. Jennet Campbell was a critical influence on the development of many musicians in Cornwall, either directly or indirectly - through her own teaching or through the work of the  Radford Trust and the instrument provision scheme they have provided for many children coming to music for the first time. She received and MBE and was created a bard in the Kernow Gorsedd for her contribution to music in Cornwall.  She was the niece of musicians Maisie and Evelyn Radford, the two sisters who had settled St Anthony in Roseland and founded Falmouth Opera Group in the 1930s.  She inherited their studio and Coastguards in the village and it was from this Cornish centre of operations that her remarkable contribution to music at parish level (formation of St Anthony's Pl
