Paul Simon & Art Garfunkel met at primary school; starting their musical journey together in the imaginatively named 'Tom and Jerry' band in the mid 1950's before becoming one of the most influential musical duos of the Greenwich Village folk rock scene in the 1960s. In a tempestuous creative relationship that lasted 5 years, they produced 5 albums of memorable songs and the soundtrack to the iconic film The Graduate. Known for their close vocal harmonies, finely-crafted melodies and evocative writing about New York, there are many treasures to discover as we join experienced vocalist Jo Sercombe for a weekend of fun, relaxation and great songs as we sing our way through Simon & Garfunkel old favourites and lesser known tracks. Suitable for male and female voices, some harmony singing experience is advisable but you don't need to be able to read music notation.
Book well in advance for this weekend course at Farncombe with Jo Sercombe - 11-13 November 2011 - call 033 3456 8580 or email enquiries@farncombeestate.co.uk
