Last year, we enjoyed a fabulous concert from the\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/taraminton.com.au\">Tara Minton<\/a>\u00a0Quintet, plus a workshop for harpists the afternoon before the gig. This year, we&#8217;ll have a\u00a0day with another star of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.camac-harps.com\/blog\/en\/harps-eng\/electric-eng\/the-big-blue-47-eng\">blue harp<\/a>:\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.bjcg.co.uk\">Ben Creighton-Griffiths<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>On the penultimate day of the festival, Saturday November 26th 2016, Ben will appear in association with Clare Jazz. He&#8217;ll play\u00a0a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cambridgejazzfestival.org.uk\/ben-creighton-griffiths\">solo set at 8:30PM in the Clare College cellar bar<\/a> (get there early &#8211; last year,\u00a0the queue snaked around the block). Ben is a real champion of solo Blue Harp jazz, both with the use of processing and effects pedals, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.camac-harps.com\/blog\/en_blog\/2015\/09\/new-jazz-album-from-ben-creighton-griffiths\/\">also almost unplugged<\/a>.

This is a class for students of all ages and stages. \u00a0Ben will draw\u00a0on his experience as both a classical and jazz musician, offering harpists to come and perform pieces from either genres in a relaxed atmosphere. This will be followed by an informal talk about his progression from classical to jazz music, and then a group\u00a0&#8220;Introduction to Improvisation&#8221; jam session!<\/p>\n<p>Places are free, but limited. Harps are also free-but-limited: our UK partners Telynau Vining will bring as many harps as they can fit on the van, and you are welcome to borrow them on a first-come, first-served basis. To sign up for the workshop, please\u00a0<a href=\"info@camacharps.co.uk\">email Elen Vining<\/a>, with details of what piece you would like to play for Ben in the first half of the class.<\/p>\n<p>Between workshop and concert you can fill in the time by having a glass of wine with us, and exploring Telynau Vining&#8217;s\u00a0exhibition of Camac&#8217;s latest instruments, also in the Garden Room directly after the workshop.<\/p>\n<p>We look forward to seeing you there!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For the second year running, the blue harp takes centre stage in this fantastic festival!
