Thread Name: Ann: Outstanding concerts at Cambridge,
Subject: Ann: Outstanding concerts at Cambridge,
UK, that is. And actually they are at Sawston Village College, 7 miles outside Cambridge.

Sawston Arts Festival Autumn Programme offers two concerts by some of the finest and most original performers around:

Friday 24th September: Flook! The UK 'heart' of last year's sell-out Flutopia event, on tour to launch their new CD. Flute (and whistle) playing beyond anything you've heard before, with fine accompaniment on guitar and percussion.

Thursday 14th October: Martin Simpson You don't need telling that Martin is acclaimed as one of the world's finest guitarists - an Englishman now living and teaching (blues) guitar in the USA! His performance encompasses an eclectic range of styles and techniques, and he is also an outstanding interpreter of songs - traditional and modern

Each event has music from 7.45pm, and offers a bar (license permitting) and other refreshments; the venue has ample free parking.

Tickets gbp 6.50 (concessions 4.50) with discounts for advance booking and booking both concerts together. For tickets or more information ring (UK) 01223 834578 or email george@i-cubed.co.uk.
