World music Wednesdays @ The Forest

Hi folks,

Shen's News: Wow, what a great musical week I've had. (Unfortunately no photos to show for it.) Shows with
Tibet2Timbuk2 in the grand Main Auditorium of City Hall on Tuesday and outdoors at the Northey St Solstice Festival, plus 3 shows with American kirtan singer Dave Stringer in Byron and Gold Coast. On Wednesday I saw the wonderful Anoushka Shankar Project - Anoushka on sitar and the fantastic Tanmoy Bose on tabla were joined by South Indian bansuri/kanjira, cello and grand piano. Quite lovely.

I'm now counting down to my trip to Japan from August 21, and in the meantime Tenzin, Marcello and I will be putting a lot of spare days into recording a new T2T2 CD. I'm also planning a concert for my tabla students on August 9, which will be lots of fun so look out for that. I suspect I might wind up my Forest Wednesday sessions soon....

Hi folks,

Shen's News: It's getting cold isn't it?! But there's plenty of heart-warming music going on this week. In fact it's as busy a week as I've had for ages. Tibet2Timbuk2 had a lovely show at City Hall today; I'm going to see The Anoushka Shankar Project at QPAC tomorrow (no Forest Wednesday this week); I have 3 shows with American kirtan singer, Dave Stringer in Ocean Shores
, Woollongabba and Mermaid Beach; and Tibet2Timbuk2 are playing at the Northey St City Farm Solstice Festival on Saturday!!!

Tue 17 Jun noon Brisbane: Tibet2Timbuk2 - Tenzin, Marcello, Shen

Hi folks,

Shen's News: The performance of Rubaiyat of Omar Khaiyyam in Sandgate on Saturday was a big success - an encore and a standing ovation! Thanks to Zoli of Music by the Sea for inviting us.

No big events on my calendar this weekend, but next Tuesday lunchtime Tibet2Timbuk2 are playing in Brisbane City Hall's Main Auditorium, 1230-130, and it's free! We'll have special guest Asim Gorashi joining us for a few songs too.

I also highly recommend The Anoushka Shankar Project next Wednesday at QPAC. I'll be taking a week off the usual Forest Wednesday sessions for that one!

Sat 7 Jun Sandgate: Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam - Noor

Hi folks,

Shen's News: We had a really lovely party at my house this weekend, which featured a surprise appearance by Elliott and Wala from Ghana! Check out photos and story here: A wonderful Rosey Party


I have a concert this Saturday with Persian group Noor, performing the Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam in Sandgate. The performance brings together Persian instruments and vocals with harp and tabla and recitation of the Rubaiyat by Margie Ash-Brown.
