PETER AND THE WOLF Sat 11 Feb 11.30am | £8.50/£6.50 This exciting puppet show is set to Prokofiev’s famous score, and is a brilliant way to introduce children to orchestral music. It’s the story of a mischievous boy who goes off into the meadows to play with animals, in spite of his grandfather warning him about a wolf ! Stay after the performance for a puppet-making demonstration. J
Make sure you keep the evening (from 7pm to 11pm) of 11th February free in the your diaries for our amazing Barn Dance/Ceilidh hosted by the equally amazing Central London Outdoor Group – a not-for-profit group run for members by members – see our website: Central London Outdoor Group.
A top live barn dance band (3 musician plus caller) band will be performing at this special event – The Wraggle Taggle Band. http://www.wraggletaggle.com/.
Never been to a barn dance before? No problem – the caller will teach you everything you need to know.
The barn dance will be at a fab venue in Highgate with plenty of space for dancing, good acoustics and a separate lounge for when you want to sit out a dance but still watch the action. We also get the use of a kitchen for food, drinks and snacks. You can bring food and drink to share (like we do at picnics).
Ticket sales will be opening in January. Tickets will be priced at the ridiculously low price of £13 per head (or £12 per head for members of the Central London Outdoor Group).
How to buy tickets? See: http://www.clog.org.uk/p/barn-dance.html
The total number of tickets will be capped at 70 to ensure there is plenty of space for dancing.
Sandy and Bruno met in the seventies. She was fame hungry, he was doomed to follow her. As one hit wonders, this is a story of their big come-back. With Sandy’s determination and Bruno’s blissful devotion to her, they are here; not by popular demand, but by sheer defiance. With striking aesthetics and a rousing soundtrack, The Band is a quirky, humorous display of desperate ambition and blind affection.

Cassellah Presents The Art Deco Night Owls in association with Nikki Santilli.
The Art Deco Night Owls are specialists in the recreation of the music and atmosphere of the exhilarating Roaring 20s Jazz Age into the Swinging 30s. Said by an appreciative public, to effervesce like sparkling Champagne!
The Hot Dance Orchestra comprises eight talented multi-instrumentalists playing vintage instruments such as: original vintage era drum kit with period console, Chinese tom, temple blocks, crash/ accent / bell cymbals; bass sax, tuba, string bass – not of course all played at once !!
Banjo, piano, 2 saxophonists-playing soprano, alto, tenor, saxophones, clarinets, cornet, leader trombone
Vocal – Brian Webb one of the very best/most accurate male vocalists covering this period of music, be it as a 30’s crooner or as a driving 20s singer.
With us for The Art Deco Ball we have Nikki Santilli a leading early Jazz dancer to delight us with a dance or two. What will it be?!! Charleston, Blackbottom, Balboa? Most of the music from the period was actually written in Foxtrot rhythm, including perhaps surprisingly, The Charleston, Blackbottom and Varsity Drag!
Come to dance, or just come to listen and soak up the atmosphere, either way we’ll have a Ball!

Serenata celebrate the music of Brahms this April at Lauderdale House.
This concert will feature an eclectic programme of Lieder, Duets & Piano Music by the Classical Romanticist, which will include the original scoring of the Love-Song Waltzes and a special arrangement of Wiegenlied, as well as the Gipsy Songs and selected Hungarian Dances.
Serenata will perform Aimez-vous Brahms? on Friday 27 April 2018 at 7:30pm.
Tickets are £12 (£8 concessions) and will be available on the door or from: 22 Chestnut Avenue N8 8NY (020 8348 2983).
Dance: One Moment in Time
Brahms’ gorgeous, stirring Ein Deutsches Requiem is one of the great choral works, full of warm, rich harmonies. Inspired perhaps by the deaths of his mother, and his friend and fellow composer Robert Schumann, its music evokes comfort, loss, fear, peace and joy. Unlike other well known requiems, Brahms’ is not so much a mass for the dead as an offering of solace to those who mourn.
Jane Hopkins conducts Voxcetera, with soprano Ellie Sperling and baritone Jamie Sperling, using Iain Farrington’s acclaimed arrangement of the score for chamber ensemble. It promises to be both a grand and intimate experience.
There will be a bar open before and after the performance, and Voxcetera hopes you’ll stay to join us for wine and cake when the music finishes.
