The fourteen players who gathered together tonight started off playing the three Renaissance Dances arranged by Cornelius:
- Wilson’s Wilde
- When Daphne
- Kemp’s Jig
Somewhat hesitantly we started on Farewell to Stromness by Peter Maxwell Davis in an arrangement by Cornelius, until we recalled playing it last year at the Reigate Festival.
After the break when refreshments were provided by Kate, and we’d had plenty of chatter, we listened to:
David, Emma, Simon and Tom | Serenade (Franz Schubert) |
Cornelius, Georgie and Jim | Passacaglia (G.F. Handel) |
Lastly the whole ensemble played the second movement of Lute Concerto in D by Vivaldi., followed by Karl Jenkins’ Palladio, to finish off the evening.
Our sessions are held on the third Saturday of each month, from 6.30 pm, to start playing at 6.45.
Our third session of 2025 will be on Saturday 15th March. So pick up your guitar and come along and join us – we are here for you.
