The Chalk Legends
A promise kept… and a prophecy fulfilled
There are secrets locked in the fertile landscape of Dorset. Some of these secrets are about a dark time when Viking hordes pillaged the coast, secrets only whispered in the villages or remembered by the landscape.
When one of these secrets is suddenly unearthed during preparations for 2012, a promise made over a thousand years ago is kept… and a prophecy fulfilled.
This is the story behind The Chalk Legends – the 2012 Project of Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra in partnership with Dance South West, Dorset Music Service, Panoscope & Artsreach.
The Chalk Legends project has now held two concerts; Tarrant Gunville played hosts on April 15th and Corfe Castle on May 21st.
