BGS Meeting 19th August 2023

Eight players met tonight. We welcomed a new player who enjoyed joining in with the ensemble and who we hope will become a regular member.

Cornelius led us through the sight-reading of new pieces - Oye Como Va by Tito Puente and Spanish
Harlem
by Jerry Leiber and Phil Spector, and through Dorimix by Bob Power which we had played once before.

Thanks go to Kate for the welcome refreshments during the break, while David, our Treasurer, accepted £25 subs for the next half year, from those who do not pay on-line.

Solo performances tonight were from:

Tom Delight Galliard (John Johnson)
Cornelius Villanesca, Spanish Dance No.4 (Granados)
Marion Musette from English Suite No.3 (J S Bach)

The ensemble then tackled Spanish Harlem again. Our evening ended with Valse Venezuelienne, a traditional tune arranged by Thierry Tisserand

Do join us for our first session of the Autumn – Saturday 16th September.
