Events Calendar 2012 Sunday 25 March 2012 - Harmonic Whirlies with Jillian Praeger and the AGM "Beautiful musical instruments & powerful Vibrational Healing Tools" This is how Sarah Hopkins describes her instruments: ‘Harmonic Whirlies are truly unique musical instruments which everyone can play, created by internationally acclaimed musician Sarah Hopkins. Made from finely tuned corrugated plastic tubing, they play hauntingly beautiful pure music, whilst simultaneously providing powerful vibrational healing. When whirled through the air at different speeds, each whirly plays an average of 6 astoundingly pure notes from the harmonic overtone series.’ Where: Carina Districts and Senior Citizens Club Cnr Edmond and Sankey Streets, Carina Time: 2pm, followed by the AGM at 3pm.
