Then, down to hard work improving our ensemble playing of the Connemara Suite
which we will play at the Bromley Festival on 4th March. Only two more rehearsals
before then! After practising each of the five pieces, we played straight through to get
used to quick changes of tempo and key signatures. It also enabled John to know we
will not over-run our allotted time.
After a later-than-normal tea break (thanks as always to Trevor for his welcome refreshments), we enjoyed a huge variety of solo, duet and sung performances:
Trevor (vocals) and Toby (guitar) | Fine Knacks for Ladies (John Dowland) |
Toby and Shaun | Farewell to Stromness (Peter Maxwell Davies) |
Shaun | Almain (Robert Johnson) |
Freddie | Study no.3 (Carcassi) Study in A Maj (Carcassi) |
Tom | Entrée (Giuseppe Antonio Brescianello) |
Rob | Memories of Summer (Gary Ryan) El Roble (Juan Hildago Montoya) |
John | Prelude from "Suite in the Ancient Style" (Guido Santorsola) |
Upcoming guitar recital
Gary Ryan will be giving a guitar recital at All Saints Church in Orpington at 3:00pm on Sunday the 25th of February.
