Thank you both. The addition and the correction are now done. i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gif

In the listing, above, the date for the Toronto performance was omitted. Did I not hear that it was scheduled to take place on Saturday, May 7th? Is that not still the case? Has it changed?

I hope, I hope, I hope... I hope that it's still "on" for Saturday, May 7th! Because, if so, then that's one which I can really go to! i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gif

You are right, Susan. The 3 Canadian dates are listed on this page: rapids.canoe.ca/clive/clvsearch?style=artist&tr_band_name=HAYLEY+WESTENRA&from_date=&to_date=, with May 7th as the Toronto date. I'm sure that this will soon be edited in the first message!

[HWI]

Corrected. I did have the date when i first put that up, but for some reason did not include it. Silly me.

Keith.

[Dave]

The gap in February is interesting - and as far as I know, Hayley will be in London then, to record her new album. She looks like remaining in Europe until the beginning of April. That seems to make sense as it would be fairly easy for her to go back into the recording studio, if anything needs tidying up.

I assume that Hayley's schedule for the second half of the year (not yet listed) will be built around her new album and the proposed release dates in different countries. I'm already starting to get quite excited about it!

[HWI]

There have been some major changes to Hayley's schedule for 2005. See the first message in this thread.

Evening

I've got a rough idea of what the "classicalive" event in March, but do any of you have any more detailed info on Hayley's appearances in June at Hampton Court and in July at Kenwood House here in Britain??

Thanks for any help

Nick,

[HWI]

Hi Nick,

All I can tell you at the moment is that Hayley will be appearing with Jose Carreras at Hampton Court. Full information on these is not yet in.

Will you be at the Classicalive event on the Sunday? If so, please take the trouble to look for us. Just look out for the HWI sweatshirts, come over and introduce yourself. We should really get together when we get the chance. it would be good to see you.

Cheers,
Keith.

Well i'm certainly hoping to be there on the Sunday, i haven't bought any tickets as yet although i hope to do that soon. I've just gotta check that the day doesn't clash with anything i'm not currently aware of first.

On the Hampton Court and Kenwood House thing, i understand that info is sketchy right now but i've had a quick search online for some tickets and have come up emty handed. So if you do come across anything when it comes to tickets i look forward to reading it, although if i myself find it before you i will post it on here[That is a bit unlikely with all your connections and contacts mind you i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gif].

The Hampton Court event is of particular interest to me as i saw Hayley sing with Jose at the Royal Albert Hall in Decembet 2003, it will be nice indeed to see and hear both her and them in action once again.

I'll try to be at all of her appearances currently on the schedule but i'll just have to wait and see. Mind you the UNICEF concert at Canada House late last year, could well prove to be worth as much as all the performances i saw prior to that and these three combined on a personal level, but you never know i guess.

So sooner or later i'm sure we'll meet.

thanks

Nick,

[Dave]

Details of Hayley's Classicalive workshop and recital are now available (London Olympia, March 20th):

"4.10 Hayley Westenra Recital

Workshop on how Hayley and her team adapt a song from an album for performance on stage working with different size ensembles, followed by a Recital including Pokarekare Ana, Amazing Grace,Ave Maria and Wiegenlied. Ian Tilley – Piano. Fiona Pears – Violin."

This is certainly different and it sounds absolutely fascinating. The superb Fiona Pears will be there, too! i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gif

Full programme details are here.

[Richard]

Hello Keith, Dave, Simon, Roger etc.,

Just to confirm that I will be at Classicalive at Olympia on Sunday 20th March, and I'm looking forward to meeting you all there. I'm also looking forward to seeing Fiona Pears, because she wasn't at the show in Southend last November.

Cheerio for now,

Richard
