Event Description
Who's the greatest deaf symphonist you've never heard of?
The English composer and organist William Boyce (1711-1779) was well respected and immensely popular in his lifetime, but his symphonies and overtures were sadly neglected for many years after his death.
Alaric Posey invites us to sample some of Boyce's musical legacy.
