Music in the Garden
There was music in every corner of the garden when I was there last Friday. A mariachi group was playing just inside the entrance to greet people as they arrived.
I spent some time listening to these two fabulous guitar players. They are The Sahnas Brothers, a duo with Greek roots who specialize in Spanish and Mediterranean fusion music. It was foot-tapping fun.
I ended the evening with another performance by the group called Traveler. I saw them last year around this time too. They perform world fusion music using a variety of native instruments. They do an outstanding version of Hava Nagila, one of my favorites. Fortunately for the people near me, the music was loud enough that no one could hear me singing along.
That was a very popular song when we were young indeed!
ReplyDeleteIt's pretty hard not to sing along with that one Sharon 😀 All three musical styles would get those toes tapping!
ReplyDeleteAt least you HOPE so! Ha!
ReplyDeleteI like the contrasts between each set of them.
ReplyDeleteHow fun! The Sahnas Brothers were at an event here at the courthouse once and I thought they were great. I bought a CD from them.
ReplyDeleteI'm curious about those canisters with "Acorn Gas" on the sides of them. Are they some type of heater?
ReplyDeleteEveryone looks a bit bundled up so it must have been a cool but enjoyable evening, Sharon!
ReplyDeleteLooks like it was a great evening of music.
