Class - 26th April

Sorry this is so late...I just haven't had a moment to sit and write until now.
We began the new term with an old favourite (for most people)...'Serenade' by Derek Bourgeois (written in 1965 for those who were wondering)...and a new piece 'Crown Imperial' by William Walton (in honour of the Queen's Diamond Jubilee)...we will also have an Olympic themed piece too, but that's not ready yet.

Smaall group items:
  • 'Dance a Cachucha' (from 'The Gondoliers') by Arthur Sullivan - Penny, Annabel, Dermot & Mike
  • Concerto in A minor by Telemann - Imogen, Judy, Diana, Theresa, Kath, Helen, Margaret & Joan
  • Trio Sonata in D major by Telemann - Helen, Polly & Angela
