Ricardo Curbelo (Harp, Cuatro, Maracas, Vocals)
“A sheer delight to see and listen to” (Arran Music Society, 2016)
Fiona Harrison, (Classical Guitar)
“… a musician of great sensitivity both to her instrument and the mood of the music … gifted with a superbly confident technique.” (Hampshire Chronicle)
Travel on a rich and exciting musical journey with these two fine soloists.
Innovative Latin American harpist, composer and poet, Ricardo Curbelo, combines traditional music from a variety of Latin American countries, together with his own, spellbinding compositions. Vibrant, energetic and jazzy pieces contrast with more classical, enchanting melodies and tender vocals. He is delighted to share this concert with wonderful classical guitarist, Fiona Harrison, who will also present a fascinating and varied programme of music, crossing cultures and centuries from Renaissance England through to contemporary Japan.
Combining critical thinking and challenging debate with diverse music and vibrant culture, HowTheLightGetsIn September 2021 is back for its first physical festival in two years, taking place on the glorious grounds of Kenwood House on Hampstead Heath.
The world’s largest philosophy and music festival, the weekend will host over 200 events – bringing together internationally respected thinkers and a spectacular medley of musicians, performers and artists.
Hosted by the Institute of Art and Ideas, September’s theme is Dreams and Jeopardy – with headline speakers including Nobel prize winning physicist Roger Penrose, human rights activist Shami Chakrabarti, award winning journalist David Aaronovitch and economist and broadcaster Linda Yueh, with plenty more world leading thinkers to be added in the next few weeks.
