Begin your Celtic Festival Friday with an hour of glorious music hosted by the Glen Innes Severn Public and TAFE Library at 71 Grey St.
The short and FREE concert will begin at 10 am with a 30 minute performance by soprano and harpist Siobhan Owen, described as having a ‘unique vocal style – blending her ethereal soprano voice with heart wrenching Celtic lilts.’ A Welsh-born Australian, with Irish heritage, Siobhan is the invited ‘Honoured Guest for Wales.’
The music continues at 11am with the Abakus Celtic Trio presenting its 30 minute set. The Trio includes Kim Kirkman, voice, harp and violin, Amy Jansen on flute, whistle and mandolin, with guitarist Bernard O’Scanaill. Known for blending traditional and classical styles, Abakus performs a ‘rich repertoire of Celtic tunes from around the world.’
