February 5: Special Themed Evening – Celebrating the Concertina! Plus Special Guests – Australian Concertina Convergence members and friends (7:30pm – 10:00pm).
Hosted in conjunction with Red Hill Folk at the Ithaca Bowls Club, Fulcher Street Red Hill in Brisbane.
February 5 is World Concertina Day Eve and, in conjunction with members of the Australia Concertina Convergence who will be joined by some of their friends, we are dedicating tonight to this popular and versatile instrument, beloved of so many! This event will be Brisbane’s contribution to World Concertina Day and will be advertised on Facebook, with the Special Guest set shown on YouTube.
As our guests, all concertina players will have free entry to the evening and are encouraged to come along with their instruments and either join in the Special Guest set at 8:30, perform separately, or sit in with the regular performers’ sets if they would like to. A light supper will be provided after the performances. Please contact Lee Knight at vescere.bracis.meis@gmail.com to notify her of your interest in joining this evening so we have an idea of your numbers.
