Highly Strung- Meet Me Under the Mistletoe
Wednesday 21st December, 2016 - 20:00
€12 – €15Highly Strung is what happens when four women with an assortment of instruments, personalities and musical backgrounds get together to play music. For those yet to experience a Highly Strung evening, the group is an acoustic blend of flute (Jeanette Behan); violin (Lisa Lazenby); mezzo-soprano (Angela O’Toole) and harp (Mary Keenan). The journey that began one evening at a summer festival has continued apace with performances in aircraft hangars, stately gardens, tiny medieval churches, elegant drawing rooms, windswept islands and gothic castles. Performing anything from O’Carolan to Coldplay, Highly Strung has a quirky perspective on the classics creating a magical atmosphere at every concert. This evening, Highly Strung presents a seasonal offering of old and new seasonal favourites, tinselled and tasselled with a twist.
A further treat awaits in the form of Milis, an all-ladies Kildare based choir whose harmonies have delighted audiences both at home and abroad. A donation from tonight’s concert will be made to the charity Friends of Naas Hospital. So, join with Highly Strung and Milis for a night of nostalgia and good cheer.
