They whipped Corsham Festival 2011 into a frenzy right from the very beginning at this year's launch evening, and they certainly did not disappoint as the last offering in this year's programme.

Tatcho Drom are an Eastern European sensation that conjure up wonderful imagery as with their Gypsy and Balkan tunes.

It was therefore a little irritating that the rake of The Pound's auditorium was not the right set-up for such a lively occasion.

Tatcho Drom's wacky and fun German female lead Gundula Gruen (violin/vocals) was eager to get the audience up on their feet but it just wasn't going to happen. It is notoriously difficult at the best of times to get an English audience out of their seats and moving to the music, but a cabaret seating configuration would have been a little more encouraging.

Special praise must go to Ricardo Marek-Czueja (violin/vocals) who was the 'father' of the group. His son Benjamin Czureja plays guitar. But Marek-Czueja's personable relationship extended beyond his own son. He injected humour into the evening through his violin music.

All in all this was an incredible end to an equally incredible festival, but if this evening had been presented 1,000 miles away in a bar it would have been all the more memorable.
