No ordinary folk'n' jazz

Every folk'n'jazz is different but this one is going to be very special. Once the decision had been taken to have an evening to commemorate the outbreak of world war 1 everyone has pulled out all the stops to make sure that it really will be "an evening to remember". ( Rehearsals started the day after the last folk'n'jazz evening)
Regulars will be joined by guests from Montauban folk club and the Fifi singers for a programme of nostalgic music,songs and poems  from the period. In order to fit everything in the evening will not be quite as casual as usual and the usual "folk clubby intros" will be minimal with a souvenir programme ( in English and French) telling the stories ( don't forget your reading glasses!).
 Judging by the phone calls we have had asking for directions there will be a good mixed nationality crowd so get there in good time and have a garden chair in the boot in case the chairs run out!
 The venue is La Vigerie at St Vincent de Varen just outside Varen
Parking will be signposted.
 The evening starts at 8.00 sharp, entry is free, just bring yourselves a drink and nibbles if you want to.

Val says  We have also had phone calls  from French people asking where Mas del Sol is ( in one leaflet  the wrong venue was given)  We have directed them to the Vigerie. I do hope if there are a number of French people some concession will be made with introductions in both  languages, but  I am sure it will and the programmes in French and English are a brilliant idea.
