'Heart & Soul' - Loosely Woven

Loosely Woven is the community-based group of musicians that I coordinate and the chief reason Gial and I bought the former Allambie Heights Uniting Church and created Humph Hall in the first place.

Loosely Woven normally puts together 3 or 4 shows each year and performs them all over the place - just for fun, never for money! Needless to say we haven't been doing much of this during the past year or so! :-(

As usual, Loosely Woven will be performing acoustically - no PA system.

A new, free, folky, light-hearted, eclectic, acoustic concert . . .

'Heart & Soul' is the first public concert for Loosely Woven since everything came to a grinding halt thanks to Covid-19 in March 2020.

The concert will feature 16 instrumentalists and singers.

The program includes a number of well known songs such as:

The Bonnie Banks of Loch Lomond
I cain't say no (Oklahoma)
Milord (Piaf)
Words (The Bee Gees)
The Boxer (Simon & Garfunkel)
Ghost Riders in the Sky
Vilia (The Merry Widow)
I will (The Beatles)
The air that I breathe (The Hollies)
I cannot tell what this love may be (from G&S 'Patience')

Some lesser known songs:

They don't let the girls in the game (powerful song by Australian singer/songwriter Michael Waugh)
Heart & Soul (by Melbourne singer/songwriter Louey Hesterman)
Sweet Baby James (James Taylor)
Lighthouse Light (Mary Black)
Evangeline (Emmylou Harris)
Cara Mia (Jay Black)
Homeland (Celtic Woman)

Instruments this time will include: violins, flute, saxophone, clarinet, harp, mandolin, harmonium, glockenspiel, accordion, concertina, guitars, ukuleles, keyboard and percussion.

There will be only four public performances on this occasion including one here at Humph Hall on Saturday 18th December.
