Music makers.
Music always plays an important part in the conferences in Caux--violin, guitar, piano, flute, cello.... There is the Australian Johnny Huckle with his impassioned songs about healing and freedom for his Aboriginal people. And the Trio Tirabosco on the panpipes, double bass and piano, whose gypsy-style music brings the house down.Then there are the house musicians for the last two conferences: Sally Wigan on piano, Anna Wigan on flute and Emily Hurrell on cello. They give two workshops and two concerts, as well as playing in a church service and in many of the meetings. In their interactive workshop, each group has to give a two-minute performance with anything that can be found. Perhaps the best is two men banging trays and fire irons together.
