The Pocket Choral Society
Pocket Choral Society
*18 May, 7pm*
*Doe Lea Resource Centre*
Four experienced singers present a show of new and not so new music to entertain all ages. The Pocket Choral Society brings sweet sounds, improvisation and laughter together as one glorious whole!
Singing unamplified, the quartet bring their own songs and new arrangements of some more well known numbers from songwriters like Lennon and McCartney, Lou Reed and Tom Waits in an intimate and relaxed way.
The vicar, publican, farmer and village shop worker who form the group, bring a whole new vibe to the show as they combine the singing with tales of intrigue and village life from their own village of Pocket. Beautifully crafted harmonies, stories from village life and plenty of opportunity to sing along, this is one evening you don't want to miss!

*13 May*
*Zoom webinar hosted by Creswell Crags*
Join Professor Eugene Morin online to discover recent insights into Neanderthal's adaptations to changing environments.
Neanderthals are often portrayed as ineffectual and non-adaptable big game hunters while the sapiens that expanded into Eurasia tend to be perceived as highly efficient and adaptatively flexible foragers.
In this presentation, Professor Morin will examine how these populations adapted to the changing environmental conditions of the Pleistocene and will provide some thoughts on the evolutionary implications of recent archaeological research in Eurasia.
