'Beauty of the World' is Loosely Woven's long awaited follow-up to the environment focused concert 'Fogs is the problem!' which they did back in 2004 with Australia's Poet Lorikeet Denis Kevans & Sonia Bennett. Sadly, Denis is no longer with us but Sonia certainly is and the concert will feature her magnificent voice and a number of her's and Denis's songs.

Instruments include harp, fiddles, viola, recorders, clarinets, saxophones, flutes, ukuleles, concertina, keyboard and percussion. See the Loosely Woven web site for details of the program.
