Jennifer Lucy Allen – The Foghorn’s Lament

June 15, 2021

15th June 2021

Brighton Spiegeltent

Musicologist Jennifer Lucy Allan will be in Brighton next Tuesday to talk about the history of foghorns.

“Jennifer Lucy Allan loves foghorns, but not everyone shares her passion. In a talk to mark the publication of her first book, THE FOGHORN’S LAMENT, the writer, music journalist and broadcaster takes a trip to Shetland, where she meets a disgruntled ex-keeper whose feelings for his foghorn spirit her back to 19th century noise complaints lamenting the foghorn as a howling fiend, the last in a long line of wailing creatures that populate caverns and rock reefs around the British coast. The Foghorn & The Bull sings a song of the coast, its people and sounds, resurrecting tangled histories at the threshold between land and sea. Jennifer Lucy Allan is a British musicologist, writer, radio presenter and co-host of BBC Radio 3’s Late Junction. She has worked as The Wire’s Online Editor and is currently The Quietus’ Rum Music columnist.”
