Loosely Woven is a community based group of people who put together and perform two to three brand new shows each year. 'Universal Child' is the last of these for 2012.

The concert gets its name from the famous Annie Lennox song which so incisively reflects her passion for human rights. The concert also includes a number of unusual Christmas-related songs including local songwriter Peter Kearney's powerful 'Refugee Carol' and Jackson Browne's 'The Rebel Jesus' and many more - the usual eclectic Loosely Woven mix! There are 22 performers this time with an instrumental line-up that includes: harp, flutes, clarinets, saxophones, violins, guitars, mandolin, piano, accordion, concertinas, glockenspiel, harmonium, bowed psaltery, keyboard and percussion.

Owing to Council restrictions there will once again be only two performances in Humph Hall as well as numerous others elsewhere in Sydney (see the 'Universal Childl' web site for details.)
