The Embassy of Guatemala in the UK presents the concert: Marimba of Guatemala - Singing Woods. It's taking place 9th & 10th October 2006 at the Bolivar Hall of the Venezuelan Embassy, 54 Grafton Way, London, W1T 5DL at 7.30pm.
Tickets cost £10 and you can book tickets through 0207 351 3042.
A team of 11 marimberos are directed by Alfonso Angel Bautista. The event is sponsored by the BlueOil Company and supported by the Anglo Central American Society. There is also an acknowledgement to the Embassy of Venezuela on the invitation. The print invitation links to an interesting text on marimba by Rebecca L. Buckham - there's a low quality version available online.
I can't find any info about the supporting organisations or the event itself online. Anyone know anything, we'd be happy to hear from you.
