MUSIC BY
THE SEA
supporters of fine music!
As you know, at the end of 2023, the wonderful series of Music By The Sea concerts organised by the equally wonderful Zoli Mauritz came to an end after a fabulous 26 years.
My name is Philip Griffin, and I’m one of the musicians lucky enough to have performed in some of these concerts. In fact, I got to perform on four occasions, with four different acts, including in the final event last December with Arabic Classical Music Group Shanasheel.
Shortly after that concert, several other musicians and myself decided that we needed to mark the end of this magnificent series, and give something back to Zoli. And here it is!
On Sunday, 16th June 2024, from 4pm until 9pm, there will be a veritable feast of music, the scope of which will at least hint at the huge variety of musical styles that Zoli programmed over the years, and this time he can just relax, enjoy, and not have to organise anything.
You’ll see – and hear:
Tjupurru & Efiq Zulfiqar
Karin Schaupp
Joe Chindamo
Shanasheel
Kavisha Mazzella

Of course it’s at the Sandgate Town Hall, and we think it’s going to be fantastic!
Please come! Please buy a ticket early and buck the trend of only booking at the last minute. (COVID seems to have done that to everyone).
FYI, there will be an hour-long interval around 6pm, so maybe you can pre-order some food at a local eating establishment, and so that you have time to eat and be back for the second half of the concert.
