CELTIC music fans will be in for a treat this Sunday, when performers will fill the Emerald Community House hall with classical tunes from across the ocean.
Sacred, Classical and Celtic is an afternoon concert being held at the Community House from 3pm on Sunday, 25 January, featuring a trio of expert musicians.
Singer and guitarist, Jacqui Rutten will join viola da gamba player Miriam Morris and flutist Johanna Selleck for the concert, which Ms Rutten said would be a treat for all fans of the genre.
“The songs range from ornamental chant, Gregorian chant, Irish songs, Scottish songs and one English song – and perhaps a couple of well-known pieces,” Ms Rutten said.
She said the performers joining her on stage would have a wealth of experience, with Ms Morris a teacher at Melbourne University and a player in many major orchestras, and Ms Selleck as a soloist with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra.
“I’m excited – the other musicians are very skilled.”
The show will be a one-off for the Dandenong Ranges, and Ms Rutten said she hoped to fill the halls of the Community House with lovers of sacred, Celtic and classical music.
The performance will begin at 3pm on Sunday 25 January at Emerald Community House and finish at around 4pm.
Entry is $15, $10 for concession-holders and seniors, and children under the age of 12 receive free entry.
