'From Across the Sea'
A celebration of music, language and flowers for what may be...
Between the 13th and 18th of June 2008, a celebration took place in London after the release of 'www.weymouthaapsalu.com'. The celebration started with a performance of 'The Binding' on the 13th of June by Morley Chamber Choir and Rory Pilgrim at 7pm.
For the remainder of the celebration until the 18th of June, the recordings of the EKA Koor and singers from the London Chorus remained playing simultaneously in separate spaces in London. This reflecting upon the connection that could be truly made by the people of Weymouth and Haapsalu.
Continuing from the period of reflection in a space in London set up four days prior to the release of the website, the space became one of celebration after its release. The two flower arrangements made by Joan Cobbold and Cheryl Todd were replenished for the celebration, and the stage made by Malcolm Todd remained.
