FANCY A (VIRTUAL) TRIP TO THE SOUTH OF FRANCE?

Sylvia from Tuakau

Violinist Fiona Pears and guitarist Connor Hartley-Hall share a love of Gypsy Jazz. This music was originally made famous by legendary guitarist Django Reinhardt and French virtuoso violinist Stéphane Grappelli, when they formed the 'Quintette du Hot Club de France' back in the 1930s.

The music Fiona and Connor will be performing in their upcoming show at OSPA Theatre, Onewhero on 14 February will be a mix of fiery Gypsy jazz, heart-warming ballads and some well-known classics such as ‘Czardas‘ and ‘Dark Eyes’. “We are delighted to be starting 2021 off with such an exciting and dynamic show”, said OSPA President, Sylvia Devlin. “Our audience can take a virtual trip to the South of France from the comfort of the concert. This is definitely a musical experience not to be missed.”


Tickets are $25 and are on sale now at www.ospa.org.nz... or (cash sales) at The Goodness Grocer, 216 King Street, Pukekohe. Doors open at 7.00pm on Sunday 14 February.
