Different countries,
Different cultures
one common language... the ukulele.
There’s always something original cooking with Amelia Robinson and this time she’s asked me if I could relay information about a ukulele event she is going to take part in, as part of the Spitalfields Music Festival, in London, UK, during the month of June 2010.
Here is her description of the event :
About a month ago, I received a mail from Amelia Robinson, telling me she had been spending several months in Qatar, playing ukulele on the Pearl Qatar, a man-made island in Doha, off the Arabian peninsula.
She had discovered my blog via Ukulelia while I knew of her through one of Al‘s Saturday UKe Tube on Uke Hunt, featuring her hilarious song Swine Flu.
My curiosity was piqued and I decided to interview Amelia in order to find out more about her unique experience on the Pearl Qatar. Reading her vivid and amusing depiction of the place will transport you there in a flash.
