Craig; Morgan; Robson
Thursday, October 11
7PM (late start for those who come from work)
Buffet/Beverages/Concert

I am putting this up early so you can save the date. Bios and some info:

In the Autumn of 2003, three singers, rich in repertoire and musical experience, decided to combine their talents as an a-capella harmony trio. Those singers were Moira Craig, Sarah Morgan, and Carolyn Robson. Under the billing Craig; Morgan; Robson they have been captivating audiences in the UK and America, earning accolades such as "A joy to the ear" and "A harmony master-class". Their debut CD, "Peppers and Tomatoes"has been hailed as "a gem of an album" Mick Peat, BBC Radio in the Midlands
Together, Craig; Morgan; Robson bring a new dimension to the art of a-capella singing. They weave beguiling harmonies around material from the British tradition and beyond with "an effortless range and variety unheard in folk music for many years" (Folk London). Timeless songs of love and longing rub shoulders with compelling contemporary songs, and passionate, dramatic ballads take their place alongside a lilting Shetland melody or a stirring hymn from the Ozark mountains. The occasional solo song only adds to the variety of their overall performance. Here is a trio in which three distinctively different voices melt into one another to create a sound which is all their own. "True tradition bearers" (Living Tradition).

Sounds like a wonderful evening, but highly unlikely for us. I expect to be going back to work that week and Linn will have to be hustling ads on Friday to send to the printer the following Monday. Of course, we could win the lottery between now and then...

And I'm especially disappointed because I've got one of Carolyn Robson's CDs and would LOVE to hear her in person.

Who knows what will happen 'twixt then and now, though...it's on my calendar just in case.

and Mary, if you have a very discreet word with Moira she MIGHT sing "when your feeling down the best way up is Chocolate" which used to be one of her personal songs.
They are So special, I Really wish I could be there for this one!!

Just overdosed on their singing at 3 concerts at Whitby folk festival - still playing both CDs constantly - check out " Crossing the Bar" on the stranded CD as well as "Minnie of Shirvas Cradle song" on Peppers and Tomatoes - absolutely breathtaking harmonies and lyrics (Tennyson did have a way with words)

You will have a wonderful evening with three really talented ladies who will entertain you all so well. They are a true joy to listen to and are wonderful people as well.
This is one event you should not miss.

This may be the one I really finally get to. Saw them in England 3 years ago. They are wonderful individually as well as together. I'll be in Maine at the time but have to be at a conference in Chelmsford, MA at 8am on Fri.! Not too bad a drive. What a way to end a vacation. Sure hope it works this time.

Mary, do you know whether they'll have copies of songbooks as well as cds? I'm also wondering what the chances might be of arranging a workshop for our folk chorus members up here. Do you know anything more about their schedule for that week. It's probably to late to schedule anything, but it's worth asking!

Yes we will have a few songbooks! Maeve, we'll be at Sue and Charlie West's (York) on Tuesday 9th and then driving to sinsulls the next day, and her sing is on Thursday 11th as you know. we were planning to head back to Boston on Friday 12th during the day. Whereabouts are you? If Friday is a holiday (as I've been told) might something be possible that day - or maybe Wednesday or Friday evenings - it all depends on geography! Send me a pm or jsut reply to this note - I'mm away now till Sunday evening but will check then and get back to you.

Sins -- does the concert start at 7 or supper start at 7? Do you care what people bring -- the chef takes requests. I am hoping to 'deliver' 5 or 6 others ..... emails going out tomorrow. Count Tom and me as 2 definites.

Great, Deborah!
Food at 6PM. Concert at 7PM
If you are bringing 6 people no buffet item is required (actually it never is) unless of course Tom is motivated to produce a curry.
If I can find a two-headed kitten I will have it onsite for you.

Just seen this thread - and for those in the lower half of Massachusetts and or Rhode Island - CMR will be down here with me in Woods Hole on Sunday 7th October in Community Hall at The Woods Hole Folk Music Society. Plenty of room!

Mary-

We're going to have to give this one a pass reluctantly. Weekday evenings are particularly hard for Judy (she seldom leaves work before 6 pm), compounded with the fact that we live far out of town. We also have got a lot more recording and editing to do before leaving for Australia at the end of October, not to mention the packing.

We will be joining your song party later in the month when Two Black Sheep and a Stallon will be making an appearance, assuming their delicate voices survive the Press Room sea music session the previous Saturday night.

Cheerily,
Charley Noble
