Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. The two-week OxTalks freeze period starts on Monday 2nd March. During this time, there will be no facility to publish or edit events. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period. Once Oxford Events launches, you will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
Professor John Goodby, a leading authority on Dylan Thomas and editor of Thomas’ Collected Poems, will introduce a concert of new settings of Thomas’ poetry. This concert continues work on a project which commemorates the 70th anniversary of the death of Dylan Thomas by composing new settings of the Welsh poet’s work. With new compositions by David Lancaster, Sadie Harrison, Philip Grange, Rhian Samuel and Hayley Jenkins, the songs will be performed in Worcester’s intimate studio space by Christopher O’Gorman (tenor) and David Pipe (piano).
