OLE - Brass on the Breakwater

Main 4K

Saturday 24 Sep 2022, 14:30  - ends at 15:30

Pre-performance talk by Sid Howells on the geology of Fishguard Bay followed by Jobina Tinnemans and Goodwick Brass Band – Newly commissioned contemporary music performance.


Following up from last year’s inaugural On Land’s Edge festival whereby Jobina Tinnemans created a work for brass at the Strumble Head lighthouse, where we could all listen to the magnificent environmental soundscape on Pen Caer from Llanwnwr farm, this new work for the Goodwick Brass band, situated on the Fishguard Harbour breakwater, is another celebration of the beautiful sounds found on our Pembrokeshire coast.


When the Stena Line ferry hoots you can hear sound echoing from Goodwick and Fishguard Harbour into the far distance. Goodwick Brass will be playing on the public breakwater in the harbour in a new work by Jobina Tinnemans full of hooting and echoes. You can walk onto the breakwater to listen, sit at the Parrog or watch from your kayak or sailing boat. It’s going to be a spectacle not to be missed!
