Griogair
SOMETHING VERY SPECIAL FOR THIS TIME OF YEAR - WATERCOLOUR HOUSE CONCERT WITH GRIOGAIR LABHRUIDH and the GYOTO MONKS OF TIBET!
Griogair and the monks are going to be recording a couple of songs here, and there's a chance to hear this unique combination on SUNDAY 17th DECEMBER at 3pm.
The monks are refugees whose music-making raises funds for their monastery-in-exile in India, and the chance to hear their unique sound is definitely a one-off not to be missed.
All the proceeds from the door will be going to this fundraising effort so please join us if you can - it will be a memorable experience, we can promise you that!
I will also be indulging in some baking for a change, so there may be scones and mince pies to boot.
Please email me to book a place so that we can have an idea of numbers - mak@watercolourmusic.co.uk or call 01855-841320. Entrance by £10 donation as usual and the weans are free!
