Esplanade Recital Studio
(1 hr 45 mins, including 15 mins intermission)

TPGC is presenting 3 songs with our Niibori Guitars for our first time since a long time ago, contributing about 10- 15 mins to the whole concert.

Our Niibori Guitars: Alto, Alto cemballo, Guitaron, Bass, & the loyal Primes are coming alive.

We will be there, as the invited guest performing guitar ensemble group, providing our best supports to the concert.

Highlight of the evening is the premier performance of Winter in Kounandai, a work by local composer Balraj Gopal. Balraj has written this beautiful piece, a first time new creation which he has composed as a brand new format just for Harmonica solo and Guitar Ensemble.

We are working hard to polish our skill-set.

You may wish to come and support your old friends and family @ TPGC.

Main Programme (some excerpt from the Esplande “what on Oct – Dec 2014) shall include many nice pieces by the harmonica ensemble, their soloists in various formats of favourite classics and folk music, charmingly accompanied by piano and others. There is also an original composition for harmonica and piano, Jacaranda, written by British composer James Moody too.

Do pop by to support the harmonica players and pianist.
