Two former Royal Academy of Music composition students of Alan Bush have works played in
the same programme in Limoges, France, in November 2002.
Edward Gregson, Principal of the Royal Northern College of Music in
Manchester, and Roger Steptoe, who lives and works in the Limousin, France,
have music played by the Orchestre Symphonique Régional du Limousin under
the baton of Guy Condette. The programme, to be heard three times in the
region, is all British-music and launches the orchestra's 2002-2003 season
of symphony concerts, opera and ballet in Limoges's modern Grand Theatre.
