About us – Music sub-committee

Russ Fossey – Chair

The members of the Music sub-committee are very much part of the local music scene. The initial aim of this sub-committee is to ensure that we raise awareness of the Guernsey Arts Commission, and its objectives, amongst the music community. To deliver this a workshop initiative, launched in July 2009, is proving to be a great way of communicating with the music community. Musicians of all ages are getting involved, sharing ideas, getting to know each other better and generally supporting the initiative with great enthusiasm. It is through this that we can develop our longer term aims based on the real needs and wants of our local music community.

The Music sub-committee have also been active, along with Culture and Leisure and the St Peter Port
Constables, in bringing busking to Town and look to developing this activity further in 2010. Mark Le Gallez, a sub-committee member, is progressing well with the GBG 2 compilation CD and it should be ready for release early in 2010. The results of the ‘rehearsal space’ survey are nearing completion and we are looking forward to reviewing and sharing the findings with the music community.
