Join us for a bal as we make our debut at Dansez Francais! - a fantastic dance series in Patcham. We will be playing for a variety of dances including scottish, marurka, bourrees, andro, hanter dro and perhaps also some of the less commonly danced Breton dances. Open to beginners and experienced dancers alike. Do bring comfy shoes!
The evening will start with an optional American Supper (6.30pm) - bring a plate of food to share. Dancing from 8pm. Support from Jeudi Matin.
Helen Gentile & Lewis Wood
Helen Gentile & Lewis Wood (Threepenny Bit and Granny’s Attic respectively), perform an evocative set of tunes from the balfolk canon on clarinet and fiddle. The duo combines the talent of two musicians who are firmly embedded into the folk music community in England. Their material comprises traditional, contemporary and original European folk dance music,
with loose, ever-evolving arrangements creating space for improvisation and showcasing the interplay between the instruments.
Tickets: £10 cash on the door
