Class - 3rd March

We welcomed back Penny this evening from her travels...and launched her straight in at the deep end with The Hebrides Overture & Wedding Day at Troldhaugen. They're beginning to take shape, and we even managed some dynamics whilst sight-reading!

Small group items:

• 'Berceuse' by Faure - Heather, Annie & Penny
• 'Alice & the Mad Hatter' by Geoffry Russell-Smith - Helen, Theresa & Dermot
• Janitsch Sonata da camera in Bb major - George, Annabel, Polly & Imogen
• Heinichen Trio Sonata in G major - Diana, Kath, Margaret & Joan

Class - 10th February

We had a visitor this evening, Krystyna - she joined in our rehearsal this evening playing treble recorder in both the full ensemble, and one of the smaller groups. I'd added an 'extension' to 'The Hebrides Overture', which means we're now swamped with pages and pages of music, and it's still not finished! We're still gaining speed in 'Wedding Day at Troldhaugen', though not all at the same rate!

Small group items:

• Heinichen Trio Sonata in G Major - Diana, Kath & Joan
• The Arrival of the Queen of Sheba, by Handel - Annie, Polly, Theresa, Dermot & Mike
• Finger 'Trio Sonata in G Minor - George, Krystyna, Margaret &Angela
• J. C. Bach Trio Sonata in G Major - Heather, Judy & Imogen
