Class - 25th April

We revisited another 'old favourite' at last week's class...'Allegro Moderato' from the 'Brandenburg Concerto No. 3' by J. S. Bach, and continued with the 'Soirees Musicales' (Britten/Rossini)...I'm still working on the final large ensemble piece...it's a bit of an epic! Before we split into small groups, we celebrated Annabel's birthday with some delicious cake and bubbly...we should definitely do that every week!

Small group items:
  • 'The Maple Leaf Rag' by Joplin (Arr. H. Brammer) - Alison, Annabel, Theresa, Nicola & Mike
  • Concerto for Four Flutes by Molter - George, Imogen, Maureen, Judy, Margaret & Joan
  • Trio Sonata No. IV by Corelli - Kath, John, Polly, Rod & Angela
