What my mother told me
2015 year marks the 200th year of Bathurst’s birth as an inland settlement. We are delighted to be taking part in their birthday celebrations – a Festival of concerts and events throughout April. For a festival all about families and friends we have chosen a program of intimate music – some of it serious and reflective but mostly just plain good fun. Included are Folksongs by Ann Carr-Boyd and Elena Kats-Chernin and Vivaldi’s cello sonatas. With Rita Woolhouse (cello) and Diana Weston (harpsichord) and a little bit of help from Bathurst’s own resident singer Narelle Hissey. This program is repeated with some modifications at the Australian High Court, Canberra.
