More about Penny & John
The first half will feature some early dance music from the lute repertoire of John Dowland and Michael Praetorius, a brilliant Spanish Fandango by Italian Composer Luigi Boccherini, some lively Russian balalaika music, some Irish pieces and two new arrangements of well known classical pieces by Mozart and Schumann plus more.
For the second half we will be joined by Louise Elaerts on double bass for some very different music. Louise performed on some of the tracks on our ‘FIRESIDE’ CD and those of you who were at the ‘FIRESIDE’ launch in March will have seen her with us then. For those who couldn’t make that concert, this second half will give you a chance to hear some of the music from the new CD. We will also be featuring some new arrangements of music with a Latin flavour and some popular standards from past decades.
