Anyone had any recently, or any coming up? I've got one tonight with my old school. Just been told I am playing in the wind band and to bring my clarinet, despite having never seen any of the music ;D. Heyho, doing a solo with swing band too.

Did one yesterday in Louth, with a young cellist from Leeds uni - she was wonderful. We have a repeat in Gainsborough in August. Steve

When in August Steve? Can people watch? Just done mine, it went really well. I had good time, and of course there was some fiasco! A perfect Nat night!

Only do about one concert a year, being an older learner and rather on the fringes of music. But it is good fun having folks round to play trios, even if my playing was crap yesterday.

...got back from my parents' house a couple of days ago, to discover that we had been popular in our absence - 10 messages on the phone, and the last was an invitation to join an ensemble for a performance of Handel's "Xerxes" in the Fringe this summer. Yaaaaaay! A part in an ensemble. Lucky it's the second recorder part - I hear the first one is a bit tricky.

Played second bassoon in Schubert's Unfinished and Mahler's first at the weekend - my first real concert as a bassoonist!! We finished with the last night of the proms sea-songs medley thingy - great fun! (especially the hornpipe as it speeds out of control!)
