Jhankar: A taste of India
|
|
Come and see Anderson Park transform into a cultural wonderland with Jhankar.
Jhankar, the translation meaning 'musical chime', will feature an array of
traditional Indian music and dance along with contemporary Bollywood
performances.
Concert goers are invited to soak up all this fantastic afternoon will have
to offer. Take part in a dance workshop, watch the kids participate in a
traditional Indian game, or get your very own temporary Henna tattoo. Be swept
away by the rhythmic melodies, colour and atmosphere of this event. The City of
Boroondara would like to thank the Rajasthai Kutumb of Victoria who assisted in
planning this wonderful celebration of Indian tradition and culture.
(These events may be cancelled in the case of extreme wet weather or heat.
Please call 0411 199 122 on the day of the event for up to date information.) |

Sidney Myer Free Concerts: No.2 - Kalkadunga
|
|
White Hat always looks forward to the Sidney Myer Free Concerts as one of the
highlights of the summer in Melbourne. They are made available free to the
people of Melbourne (and visitors) through the philanthropy of the late
Sidney Myer and performed in the
wonderful outdoor Music Bowl which he also contributed to the city.
Here is your opportunity tp lie on your back under the stars while the
orchestra conjures up the spirit of Mexico, Finland and Aboriginal Melbourne. Of
course when the first white men arrived in Melbourne they wouldn't have heard
the didgeridoo - at that
time it was unknown to Aboriginal people in southern and eastern Australia as it
was confined confined to the Pilbara area. Some time after white settlement, the
'didge' began to spread around Australia and was soon incorporated into the
various local Aboriginal cultures around the country. You are unlikely to hear
it better played than by that wonderful musician,
William Barton
Performed by The Melbourne Symphony Orchestra with Benjamin Northey
(conductor) and William Barton
(didgeridoo).
This is a free concert and details of conditions of entry and what you are
able to bring with you is available
here.

Huapango.

Mozart By Moonlight
|
|
Enjoy a wonderful night of
Mozart’s best known arias from operas including
The Magic Flute,
Cosi Fan Tutte,
The Marriage of Figaro and
Don Giovanni. White Hat
suggests that a night of Mozart under the stars in the Royal Botanic Gardens
could be a perfect romantic outing - provided you keep an eye your partner.
Ladies may find that inspired by Don Giovanni their gentleman friend has
disappeared with another woman before the end of the night. And a pair of
gentlemen heading off to buuy drinks for their girlfriends at interval could
come back and find them, inspired by Fiordiligi and Dorabella,
already hooked up with two other men. Full details and booking information at
Mozart by Moonlight. |
