Daytime concerts
This year, for the first time, the Festival will be presenting three short concerts during the day – a great opportunity for those of you who find it difficult to get out in the evenings to enjoy a taste of the Festival spirit.
Admission to all concerts is FREE.
Tuesday 21 June 11.30am
Machen Library
Stephen Bingham (Violin)
A colourful programme of music from Bach to Piazzolla given on acoustic
and electric violins and the Norwegian folk fiddle by the leader of the
Bingham Quartet.
Thursday 23 June 11.30am
Ystrad Mynach Library
Phil & Maggie
Phil and Maggie Tomkins (violin & accordion) are both classically
trained, but their taste is anything but classical. Any good tune runs
the risk of being hijacked and played - whether it comes from Macedonia,
Florida, Brittany, Turkey, Buenos Aires or County Cork.
Saturday 25 June 11.30am
St. Michael’s
Church, Lower Machen
Composer Portrait: Enid Luff
Enid Luff, one of Wales’ most versatile composers celebrates her
70th birthday this year. Lower Machen are delighted to be hosting this
short concert, given by the Welsh Music Guild, as part of their Golden
Jubilee celebrations, in which Enid Luff talks about her life and work
together with performances of several short pieces played by members of
PM Ensemble.
These library concerts are promoted in partnership with Caerphilly County Borough Council's Arts Department and Library Services.
