Eshantha Peiris’ first solo concert tonight (July 18 at the Lionel Wendt theatre at 7 p.m.) since he returned to Sri Lanka in 2008 is also his most ambitious. His last concert in 2005 honoured German composer and pianist Johannes Brahms, but with ‘Evocative’ Eshantha has chosen not to limit himself to any one artist.
Today, on July 19, the World Spice Food Festival event travels from Green Path to the Cinnamon Lakeside. The Hotel is a buzz with preparations to convert the Terrace by the pool of this 5 star hotel into a venue for a Hawker Street style festival of food.
