Sir John Tavener Memorial 2016

 

Angela is particularly delighted to announce that she has been commissioned by Lady Maryanna Tavener to design the memorial to her late husband, Sir John Tavener, at Winchester Cathedral. As John and Maryanna have been dear friends of Angela’s for many years, she had the great honour of doing a series of Portraits of the composer during his lifetime. It is with immense joy that she sets out to once again work to memorialise his spirit and his music through a sculptural memorial.

 

John Tavener was a prolific British composer with an extensive oeuvre of music. His deeply spiritual music is renowned for its ability to move audiences and has been influential to musicians around the world. I invite you to learn more about Sir John Tavener’s life and music at johntavener.com.

 

The memorial is expected to be unveiled at Winchester Cathedral in Autumn 2016. More details will follow.
