Henry Girl presents toddler concert
19.01.09
INSHOWEN musician Lorna
McLaughlin will be part of a music workshop and
concert for young children later this week in Derry.
Lorna is better known as one of the sister trio, the
Henry Girls but also leads the Gags Beasley Trio.
The concert will take place on Thursday, January 22,
at 10am in St Columb's Park House in association
with Music55-7 from the University of Ulster at
Magee. |
The session for tots
aged two to five years and their parents and
guardians, will include a short performance and an
interactive workshop including singing, playing
percussion and a chance to meet the musicians and
their instruments.
Workshop leader Sarah Murphy explains: "I'm looking
forward to a really lovely event. Getting young kids
involved in music is great for their development and
Gags Beasley's mix of quirky songs and sense of fun
is ideal." |

including nursing homes, schools, hospitals, prisons
and community groups and to people of all ages,
backgrounds and abilities. Tickets for Thursday's
