Essex born composer Cheryl Frances-Hoad is embarking on a commission for electric voice theatre’s Essex 2020 Minerva Scientifica project “Echoes from Essex” in collaboration with Chelmsford Civic Theatre.
Cheryl will be creating a work for 2 female voices and electronics which connects the famous concert given by Dame Nellie Melba broadcast from Marconi’s New Street Works in Chelmsford on June 15th 1920, with tests there by a local singer, Winifred Sayer earlier that year, and with Marconi’s Secret WW2 Radio Engineer Florence Attridge who was born in Chelmsford on June 14th 1901.
