Thank you so much to Anna and Brendan (The Lantivet Duo) for a delightful concert last night at Calstock Arts.

The audience thoroughly enjoyed the diverse range of music from Mozart to Bluegrass to their own original compositions, all played with such enthusiasm and joy.

Please come back soon!

Thirty years underground. 🔦

The Carbis Bay Crew have spent three decades exploring Cornwall's forgotten mines. They drop down deep shafts, wade through chest-high water and squeeze through tunnels most of us would never go near.

But this isn't just an adrenaline film. For these men, the mines are a lifeline. It's where they leave everyday pressure behind, lean on each other and come back up feeling lighter.

The Lost Boys of Carbis Bay is a moving documentary about friendship, self-discovery and men's mental health. Directed by Dan Simpkins and filmed over two years, it won Best Adventure and Exploration Film at Kendal Mountain Festival 2025.

📅 Thursday 15 October
🍻 Doors and bar 6.45pm, film 7.30pm
🎟️ £5 in advance, £7 on the door

This Sunday at Calstock Arts 🎻🎹

Lantivet Duo bring their violin and piano to the Old Chapel on Sunday 11 October. They're a little different from your usual classical duo.

Cornish violinist Anna Brigham and Scottish pianist Brendan Musk take a classical piece and dig into what inspired the composer. Then they write their own music and arrange folk tunes around it. Bach and Mozart sit alongside Bulgarian dances, Cornish-inspired originals like Dozmary Pool, and an Imogen Heap arrangement.

Between them they've played with the Philharmonia and Björk, and on stages from the Royal Albert Hall to Ronnie Scott's. Classic FM called them "one of the best things to see."

It's a lovely way to spend a Sunday afternoon, with tea, coffee and cake in the interval.

🗓 Sunday 11 October
🚪 Doors 3pm, music from 3.30pm
🎟 £15 advance, £18 on the door (£2 off for Friends of Calstock Arts)

Cornish violinist Anna Brigham and Scottish pianist Brendan Musk start with a classical piece and explore what inspired the composer, then respond with their own music and arrangements of folk tunes. Bach and Mozart sit alongside Bulgarian dances, Hildegard von Bingen and even a reworked Imogen Heap. Classic FM called them "one of the best things to see".

Between them, they've played with the Philharmonia and Björk and at the Royal Albert Hall and Ronnie Scott's. Now they're here, on the banks of the Tamar.

A railway across a deep valley needs not just a tall viaduct but also a huge embankment. It brings the line in at the right height. They built ours by tipping the spoil from the cuttings that were made as the line approached from Bere Alston.

What could possibly go wrong?

Well, more than you might think! Nobody knew it when this picture was taken, but this embankment was about to cause a monumental struggle. It ended up changing the course of one man’s life.

🎥 We’ll explore all this at the launch screening of The Struggle for Calstock Viaduct on 22nd October.

A few tickets left here! https://calstockarts.org/event/22-october-the-struggle-for-calstock-viaduct/
