A meeting to get the ensemble going

Contemporary music group CoMA Sussex, led by their celebrated director Steve Dummer, give a short concert of works by Sussex composers and – with the founder of West Dean College and patron of surrealism Edward James in mind – pieces that are inspired by painting or modern architecture, or are inherently surreal. Tickets at the door on a ‘pay what you decide’ basis.

Getting CoMA Glasgow going

Instrumental group CoMA Sussex, directed by Steve Dummer, make a return visit to Adur Arts Live bringing an hour of varied contemporary sounds – sometimes calming and immersive, at other times challenging but always encircled by a sense of fun. The programme will include pieces composed specially for CoMA Sussex. If you’ve never heard modern music live before, come and give it a try. Tickets £3 at the door
