DEVIL’S BRIDGE Charles Mapleston’s documentary charts the creation of Kate and Mike Westbrook’s composition TURNER IN URI from first glimmerings to World Premiere. Commissioned by the Alpentöne Festival the work involves two solo vocalists, Kate Westbrook and classical baritone Claudio Danuser, a choir, a brass band and a jazz/rock quintet (Chris Biscoe, Barbara Thompson saxophones, Tim Harries bass, Mike Westbrook piano and Jon Hiseman drums). Made for Swiss TV and filmed in the course of a year in Devon, London and Switzerland, the documentary follows the process of research, writing and rehearsal through to the first performance in Altdorf in July 2003.
