MayFest Week
Mike O'Connor & Barbara Griggs
in Concert
Mike O’Connor and Barbara Griggs make music of breath-taking beauty on a variety of musical instruments, principally the harp, violin, octave violin, and viol.
Mike is the leading researcher of music in Cornwall, and Barbara is a respected early music specialist. Together they perform a unique repertoire, the product of unprecedented scholarship that has led to the discovery of many early manuscripts and previously unconsidered sources in Cornwall. Mike is well-known for his song writing. His evocative songs, such as ‘Carrying Nelson Home’ have a wide following. Mike is also a well-respected storyteller, with a deep knowledge of Cornish legends and folk tales, and a mesmerising skill with language. |
An evening with Mike and Barbara is relaxed and highly entertaining, a delightful blend of fact, fiction, and music that has been described as ‘balm for the soul.’
