Irish Music at St Christopher's last night

[Tim Lund]

What a great gig! From the first phrase played - by a three times All Ireland Fiddle champion - I knew I was in for something special. Were there over a hundred there? - I don't know, but way more than for previous concerts. Was it hat they'd got their publicity right, or is this sort of music just more popular than classical? It bodes well for the Sydenham Arts Festival that we can find these sorts of audiences for quality music - of any genre.
