BGS Meeting October 5th 2019

We welcomed a new young player tonight.
The embryonic quartet tackled some pieces in preparation for their entry for the Beckenham Festival. With the rest of the members joining in, they worked on two of the Dances by Gervaise, Pavanne de la Guerre and Galliarde de la Guerre, and then From the Andes, an arrangement by John Whitworth of an Argentinian song.

Of course, refreshments were welcomed. Thanks again to Trevor.

Solos were played by
