‘Women of WW1’ tells women’s stories of the Great War in their own words, music and images. Narrated by Petra Schofield and Barbara Ingledew and with music by Lili & Nadia Boulanger, Rebecca Clarke, Alma Mahler, Ethel Smyth and others, performed by Jacquelyn Bevan (piano), Jamie Hughes (violin) and Linda Stocks (cello), the varied events play to a specially commissioned film of exquisite slow-moving images. Funded by Arts Council England, ‘Women of WW1’ is a collaboration between Musicians South West and Magic Penny Productions. ‘Powerful & fascinating’ (Fine Times Recorder).
