BRITTEN Frank Bridge Variations MENDELSSOHN Piano Concerto No.1 MENDELSSOHN The Hebrides DEBUSSY La Mer Kees Bakels conductor Ronald Brautigam piano
Mendelssohn's musical postcard of a Hebridean visit conjures up a whole seascape including the grandeur of Fingal's Cave, the swelling of the sea, the light on the water and the fury of the waves breaking on the cliffs. Like the sea itself, the surface of La Mer hints at the brooding mystery of its depths - a vibrating, oscillating, glimmering palette of sound which caresses the senses allowing the orchestra to shimmer in a thousand...

The second half was a totally different story though – City pulled one back within seconds of the restart, with Nichols fed by Matt Grimes before putting the ball behind Town keeper Jayson Leutwiler. Substitute David Wheeler...

Devon County Council is prepared and ready to keep the county moving this winter.
The County Council spends between £4 million and £5 million a year on roads affected by winter weather – whether it is salting roads, clearing snow or responding to flooding issues.
While the last two winters have been dominated by storms and flooding, the County Council still needs around 25,000 tonnes of salt stored in preparation for the start of winter. This will be used to treat just over 2,000 miles of Devon’s primary and secondary salting routes.
Devon County Council has won the Best Community/Local Partnership campaign in the British Heart Foundation’s (BHF) No Smoking Day Organiser of the Year competition.
For No Smoking Day 2014, Devon County Council distributed leaflets that outlined free local NHS resources for stop smoking advice. Over 14,000 leaflets were distributed throughout the community, including placement in all 50 libraries across the county.
The Council also teamed up with Exeter University Student’s Guild to run a twitter campaign aimed at students.
