IIn this concert we take you to Mousehole, a tiny Cornish fishing village where Mowzer and her pet fisherman Old Tom braved
the fiercest storm of all time to bring back fish for the villagers. Ian Hughes wrote music for the film of The Mousehole
Cat (adapted from the book by Antonia Barber and Nicola Bayley), which we perform here. The Orchestra also visit Northumbria,
where a piper heralds the start of the Cross Lane Fair, depicted in music by Peter Maxwell Davies.
