Where the Wild Flowers Are
Clare Whistler curator
Guildhall School of Music & Drama
15 solo musicians
A very special promenade performance leads audiences between three of the City’s most
beautiful historic churches – St Mary-at-Hill, St Olave Hart Street and St Stephen Walbrook –
in celebration of wildflowers. A poem and a piece of music will be presented as a gift to each wildflower, before the wildflowers are planted in the churchyards. In each church, five solo musicians give the premières of 15 specially commissioned short new works, and five performers read new poems.
Special bee poems move us between the wildflowers, like a bee moving from flower to flower.
Featuring 15 composers, from young composers from the Guildhall School to Jonathan Dove, Julian
Grant and Alec Roth; young poets from the new Salt Anthology as well as writers John Agard, Kay
Syrad, Sean Borodale and Colette Sensier.
