\"Songs<\/a>Along Broadfields Road in St Loyes, the roads are named after English composers and it\u2019s always summer. On the evening of Tuesday 16 May 2017, during Art Week Exeter, Sine Nomine serenaded the neighbourhood with the music of each composer on their eponymous street corner.<\/p>\n

We started in Britten Drive EX2 5RY then moved to Coates Road, Grainger Close, Stanford Road, Sullivan Road, Walton Road, Delius Crescent, Purcell Close, finishing at Elgar Close with a rousing chorus.<\/p>\n

“Thanks for having me! I did indeed have as much fun as you, I was blown away by how good the singing was. Interesting composer lesson too.”
\n— Marina Asvachin, Devon County Councillor for Wonford & St Loyes<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
