" SOMEONE WILL REMEMBER US... EVEN IN ANOTHER TIME." ... Sappho

Hi there we are back and ready for the 2007 season.

This year we have many wonderful artists coming 
to the garden to delight and entertain you! 
This year program includes

NAVIGATION:
MAY / JUNE
JULY / AUGUST
SEPTEMBER
ALL / WHOLE SEASON
 

MAY/JUNE:

MEERKAT'S HEATHER SUMMERS ONE WOMAN SHOW
This is a very original, astonishingly big sound from 
one woman with a bagful of tricks, talent and attitude.

Prepare to be delighted, intrigued, amused & challenged!  The wonderfully talented Heather Summers draws on her classical, folk contemporary and world music background, to create dynamic, exciting material ranging from original rap style numbers, to her own arrangements of driving world folk tunes and original instrumental compositions.

But this is not just a one-woman show; 
it's also a one-woman band.

With the use of a clever bit of technology, before your eyes and ears, she layers up whole sound-scopes using a variety of instruments - eclectic Cajon grooves, soaring violin or fiery fiddle, with quirky harmonic flute & percussion that includes alarm clock, hand claps and mouth sounds. And that's before she even opens her mouth. There is never a dull moment, & you may well find you just have to get up and dance.

JULY /AUGUST:

LORRAINE JORDEN  
“Glorious voice…striking…dynamic…hers is a voice for the ages" Sing Out (USA)

"perfect music ..Lorraines' voice is warm and compassionate .. she delivers the tunes with grace, soul and beauty that puts her among the leaders in the Celtic tradition". www.bestfemalemusicians.com  

Lorraine Jordan's music is rightly described as Celtic soul - she takes the influences of her Irish roots and love of Irish ballads and combines them with her sharp-edged intelligence and clear-eyed perceptions to create an intoxicating and thought provoking set of original songs, delivered with a mischievous irresistible charm driven by powerful silk wrapped vocals - the result is simply infectious. It is no mystery as to why Lorraine is considered by many to be one of the finest and most talented singer songwriters in Britain today. 
Currently living in London UK, she tours regularly in
Europe, Australia and the UK and this performance marks the release of her new album - A light Over there. This is the first time that Lorraine has performed in Greece and it should be a night to remember under the stars.
