HERE IS MY COUNTRY – John Woolrich in context

Folkestone New Music are absolutely thrilled to announce (or rather, remind you) of the most anticipated new music festival taking place in less than 2 weeks. Between 19-21 July, we will be celebrating the outstanding career of internationally renowned composer, John Woolrich.

With 15 concerts taking place over 5 days and art exhibition curated by John himself, it will be the most fantastic way of embracing the relationship between art, literature and music. We’ve been working alongside Folkestone New Music since we’ve started The Green Room and it’s been an absolute honour to host musicians, composers, filmmakers, and artists John has brought to Folkestone. From Di Trevis and Elizabeth Klinck to Mark-Anthony Turnage and Thomas Ades – it’s just been the most incredible journey which we are so excited to continue.

I spoke to John about his life and career in the interview for Folkestone Foghorn which we will be launching on the 18th July at 6PM in The Green Room. Come and pick up the freshly printed copy of Folkestone Foghorn and learn all about the most amazing new music festival.
