Seamus Tansey in Boston area, April 9 and 12

[bradhurley]

Attention New England flute players:

The great Irish flute player Seamus Tansey will give a concert in Watertown, Massachusetts (suburb of Boston) on April 12, 2008, and a flute workshop in Groton, Mass. on April 9. This will be Tansey’s first-ever solo concert in the Boston area and his first appearance in Boston in more than 30 years. Tickets for the concert are $15 in advance or $20 the night of the show. Workshop tickets are $20. For more information and reservations for either event, visit http://www.thegrotonsession.com or contact Peter Maguire at chucki80@hotmail.com.

Should be an entertaining evening; I’m planning to be there!

He will also give concerts in Chicago and Detroit; I don’t have info on those myself, but maybe someone else here does.

I presume no cajun accordion players will be accompanying the maestro? Cheers,

Why, would they have to charge more then?

You haven’t heard about the “Tansey on the radio” controversy, then, John? There’s audio available somewhere…I highly recommend starting at the beginning and listening right through. It’s beyond entertaining. Cheers,

I nearly died listening to that. When the girls parents came on, and all… precious.

Oh, I’ve heard all about it. Just haven’t ever actually heard it. If anyone has a link to it, feel free to post it here!

And although the Cajun accordion reference didn’t bring that to mind for me here, I think my comment still applies. If entertainment like that will be on offer when he appears in Boston, I think they’d be well justified in charging more.

Semi-seriously thinking about the possibility of making the 500 mile drive up there for that workshop myself, actually…
