Class - 10th May

We almost had a 'full house' at this week's class, and are making real progress with our large ensemble pieces. We picked up speed in 'Crown Imperial', and even the rhythms in 'Olympic Fanfare & Theme' seemed less daunting a week on!

Small group items:
  • Sonata for Four Treble Recorders by Paisible - Imogen, Penny, Judy, Diana & Joan
  • 'Allegro molto' by Beethoven (Arr. H. Brammer) - Heather, Annabel, Kath, Theresa, Dermot & Angela
  • 'The Witches Frolic' by Granville Bantock - Margaret, Mike & Helen
Next week's class should be interesting - we're split between two locations again!
