Band to Welcome Spring - join in a global project by Nick Tobier

“Welcome in the Vernal Equinox by playing instruments outside wherever you are, and people all around the world will be doing the same!” Nick Tobier

Utopias Bach will be taking part at in the Band to Welcome Spring, at St Tysilio's Church, Church Island, Porthaethwy LL59 5EP, at 3.45pm on Sunday 20th March (as part of Femke van Gent’s Sibrydion Mam Ynys - Mother Island Whispers).

We will be reconstituting Kar Rowson’s Utopias Bach Rubber Band Orchestra (“Rubber Band to Welcome Spring”), and making a short video of our springy music. Meet under the big ‘this is not a Yew tree’ at the entrance to the graveyard at 3.45 (or if you’d like to take part in the whole Mother Island Whispers event, meet 2pm in the car park next to the chinese near waitrose).

Croeso cynnes i bawb! Warm welcome to all. Bring a rubber band or two, together with a small hardback book and/or a cleft stick on which to put your rubber bands.

You are also invited to take part at home! You can see the video compilation from the 2020 Band to Welcome Spring here
