Loosely Woven is a community-based group of instrumentalists and singers who present light-hearted folky sort of acoustic concert/cabarets. On this occasion there will be approximately 23 performers and the instruments will include: violins, cello, flute, saxophone, clarinet, trumpet, recorders, concertina, melodicas, xylophone, guitars, keyboard and percussion.

The program is amazingly varied ranging from Sonny & Cher to Grand Opera! :-)

It will open with the famous title song featuring the melody from Dvorak’s New World Symphony.

Well known items will include:
All I ever need is you (Sonny & Cher)
Bei Mir Bist Shein (Israel)
Killing Me Softly (Roberta Flack)
Sway
The Rose (Bette Midler)
You’re my world (Cilla Black)
Lord of the Dance
Fix You (Coldplay)
Nutbush City Limits (Ike & Tina Turner)
Silent Night (a rather different but beautiful arrangement)
Jacob’s Ladder

The concert is a fundraiser for Rev George Capsis’ houses for the disadvantaged.

It is not often that the ensemble comes south so don't miss them - their joy is real!

See you at the Tradies (meals very reasonable too so you can make a whole night of it)

Yours in music,
