Get Kilted in Tring
3:23pm Thursday 21st February 2008
AFRICA and Northern Ireland aren't two countries you would immediately combine musically, but Kilted, featuring music from around the world, does just that.
Eight musicians from five countries will wear kilts, and deliver a fusion of music and dance from South Africa, Tanzania, Zimbabwe and Northern Ireland.
Three musicians from Derry are flying in especially for the event, and will play alongside world musicians Risenga Makondo, Kanda Saidi and Butshilo Nleya.
Kilted is supported by the Tring Arts Trust,and is raising funds for the HOPE for Children charity in Hemel Hempstead, where the show was a sell out at the Old Town Hall.
Kilted is at the Court Theatre, Pendley, Tring on Sunday, February 24. Details: 01442 823130
