Hi,
Why not beat the
January blues with a trip to see some captivating live music!
Don't miss She'Koyokh's debut at The Old
Woollen this month - hailed as “one of the finest and most
entertaining British-based exponents of global music” by The
Guardian, this seven piece ensemble is a wild swirl of
clarinet, violin, jazzy guitar licks, accordion, bass,
dance-invoking percussion, plus sweet and passionate vocals.
There's plenty of
chamber music to choose from too including pianist Inon Barnatan, flautist Adam Walker with some of his
dearest musical friends, and our free lunchtime chamber music
series. Read on to discover what's in store for January.
See you at a
