Class - 25th November

Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr....it was chilly in the Church this evening!
Not surprising really, seeing as the temperature outside was barely above freezing!

It was our last rehearsal before the concert this evening, so we had lots to do! We started with the 'Pictures'...which have definitely improved in the last couple of weeks...they really sounded good this evening..we appear to have finally mastered threes against twos!

Small group items:

• 'Snow White' - Heather, Judy, George, Kath, Theresa, Dermot, Margaret & Imogen
• JC Bach Quintet in A - Annie, Annabel, Emily, Polly, Mike & Angela
• JS Bach Trio - Penny, Diana & Joan
• Wagner 'Seigfried Idyll' - Heather, Helen, Judy, Annabel, Kath, Theresa, Dermot, Polly, Mike & Margaret
• Telemann Concerto for Four Flutes - George, Annie, Imogen & Emily
• Fasch  Sonata in G  - George, Imogen, Heather, Margaret & Joan

Class - 18th November

We had a lovely (warm) evening at St Thomas the Apostle Church in Hanwell...after a last minute cancellation of our booking for our regular venue. With more space (and better lighting!) we were able to seat ourselves in a more familiar arrangement...and I have to say it nice to be able to see some faces...rather than just the backs of heads! The accoustic created a really big sound, and it was reported that we sounded like a "symphony orchestra"!
With only one more rehearsal before our concert, the 'Pictures' are beginning to come together at last.

Small group items:

• Wagner 'Seigfried Idyll' - Heather, Helen, Judy, Annabel, Kath, Theresa, Dermot, Polly, Margaret & Mike
• JS Bach Trio - Penny, Diana & Joan
• Telemann Concerto for Four Flutes - George, Annie, Imogen & Emily

News Flash!!!

Due to the cancellation of our booking at All Saint's Church for this Thursday (18th November), the class will now be held at St Thomas' Church, Boston Road, Hanwell, London W7 2AD this week.

• JC Bach Quintet in A - Annie, Annabel, Emily, Polly, Mike & Angela
