Ship to Shore

Finished
Bookings & Enquiries:
This event has finished - Click Here
The Song Company with guest artists Slava and Leonard Grigoryan (Guitar) Ship to Shore features the extraordinary talents of the Grigoryan Brothers in a spirited performance for the end of the year. The Grigoryan brothers are stellar performers. Seamlessly crossing the boundaries of classical and popular guitar styles, they are the perfect collaborators for this rollicking, swashbuckling program of shanties and songs about the sea. From the coast of Newfoundland to the shores of Ireland and from the ports of Portugal to the sundrenched beaches of Brazil, the men that laboured on the tall ships were expected to sing. Back home, the women left behind found their own expression for loss and longing. This concert contains some of the most memorable sea shanties written as well as adaptations of classic sea songs and a variety of music from around the seafaring world. Program Nick Cave , Ship Song Fado Songs from Portugal, Caetano Veloso , Marinheiro Song Sea shanties, a selection from England, Ireland, Holland and Canada
