One is the idea of change, of metamorphoses, of one thing turning into another. Change is a constant, and I am interested in the connectedness of all things, in a cultural conversation that stretches right back to antiquity and to ancient Greek and Roman myth in particular. The other is the idea of a connection, or dialogue, with art history via the use of found imagery and texts. I am interested in using the found to investigate my own responses to individual historical works, to the people that made them, and to their themes and origins.” ‘ALCHEMY’ Until 19 April: Poole Museum, 4 High Street, POOLE, BH15 1BW.

As well as being open to the public, people representing a wide range of interests are being invited to attend these events. The purpose of each AGM is to enable the Agency to report on its recent achievements, outline current work and consult on some of our key priorities. This feedback will be used in our future planning.

  • Dorset Opera News | Spring 2013 | Issue 16 DO News | Spring 2013
    THE DORSET OPERA MMXIII The Flying Dutchman The 2013 Dorset Opera Festival celebrates the bi-centenary of Wagner’s birth with the exhilarating and stirring Flying Dutchman. At just 2 hours 20 minutes in length, this is the way to ease yourself into Wagner, and tickets are still available. This is early Wagner - akin to Beethoven in style. It presages what is to come in compostion terms, but it is nowhere near the complex, climactic, interwoven structures that we have come to expect with his later work that culminates in the Ring Cycle. Go to YouTube and play the Dutchman overture; you’ll be hooked! Better still, treat yourself to a sneak preview of American Mark S. Doss singing the Dutchman’s aria from the Bologna production in which he appeared earlier this year. Enter this link http://bit.ly/YP0fk7 into your browser, turn up the volume, sit back and be stunned by the exciting dark, bass quality of his voice. Mark is our Dutchman! Partnering him is a soprano well known to Dorset Opera Festival audiences: Lee Bissett. She had enormous success singing the title role in our production of Tosca two years ago. Having already conquered Wagner’s Sieglinde to great critical acclaim, she will bring beauty and vocal power to the role of Senta. Controlling the vast forces of our first foray into Wagner is Dorset Opera Festival music director Jeremy Carnall. Alongside director Paul Carr, he will wring every thrilling nuance out of this score. And Jeremy has some news of his own - take a look through your bumper edition of DONews to glean more..

  • AFFPUDDLE & TURNERSPUDDLE PARISH COUNCIL (DORSET) The
    Case study on a Community Governance Review AFFPUDDLE & TURNERSPUDDLE PARISH COUNCIL (DORSET) The context This case study describes a Community Governance Review which considered two neighbouring parishes. Its outcome was to combine the parishes of Affpuddle and Turnerspuddle, removing the boundary between them. The new Affpuddle & Turnerspuddle Parish Council came into effect in 2010. The population of the combined parish is no more than 450 and the former Turnerspuddle Parish had ee partiularl sall. These two parishes had ee joitl ru as a grouped parish ouil sie 9, uder a Grouping Order made by Dorset County Council. There were nine Councillors, seven elected by Affpuddle and two elected by Turnerspuddle. Their formal merger was proposed by some local councillors and residents once before, when Purbeck District Council consulted all of its local councils to ask about possible boundary changes. However, nothing further happened at that stage, because some of the changes put forward (elsewhere) were seen as contentious. Affpuddle & Turnerspuddle is a very rural parish which lies in the north-west corner of the Purbeck District Council area. It could be described as a mix of woodland, heathland and water meadow. Despite the name, its largest settlement is the village of Briantspuddle. It contains the cottage which was the last home of Lawrence of Arabia, now managed by the National Trust, and the Bovington tank training area is nearby. What happened in the review The wish to see Affpuddle and Turnerspuddle parishes formally combined continued to be felt and at a more recent annual parish meeting a resolution was passed, which again asked for the creation of a single parish.

We may look at someone else whom we think is either strong or beautiful or talented or rich, commanding the attention and admiration of the world, but peep behind the outer curtain of that person's soul, and you may find a weakness, an ugliness, a poverty that is a heavy burden for them to carry secretly. Most of us have to struggle. If it isn't a physical problem, it can be a psychological one. Which one of us does not struggle in some way with a deep shyness, or feeling of inadequacy? What young person growing through the teenage years doesn't look in the mirror and think, "What an awful nose I've got!" Then, as we progress, we find that an ambition can be thwarted, or a love denied. We rarely get the first choice in life. We normally settle for something less. It is for me a moving testimony to the strength of the human spirit that so many do their bleeding secretly, and their agonising in private.
