Mary Lattimore @ The Scala, London

with Luce Mawdsley

The harp is not an instrument I understand. I realised this watching Mary Lattimore on Tuesday evening. I understand how violins and cellos work, guitars and banjos, pianos and trumpets. But not harp. So I have a new objective. Learn about the harp. What a wonderful instrument it is. And in the hands of Mary Lattimore sends me to a place of quiet and peaceful reflection. A wonderful show where her delightful stage chat is as engaging as the music itself. A bonus is the amazing support from Luce Mawdsley. Their set is a wonderful mix of experimental guitar, clarinet and drums. Their sound is almost Richard Dawson esque (minus the vocals) and its lovely to see an opening act get such a warm reception.

Back to Mary - if you do not know her work change that below.
