BGS Meeting August 17th 2024

Tonight our ensemble of ten players warmed up with a first look at Somethin’ Stupid by Carson Parks before working on Palladio by Karl Jenkins, arr. Gary Spolding. Also by Karl Jenkins was Adiemus, the next piece we worked on, music which was unknown to some members, but was familiar to Classic FM listeners.

Thanks to Kate for serving refreshments during the break.

Players who would like to offer a solo during our sessions are invited to do so.

Tonight we were entertained with solos from

Tom Senhorinha (Guinga)
 Chasse (Napoleon Coste)
Simon Cavatina (Stanley Myers)
Cornelius Danza Brasiliera (Morel)
Marion Romanza (Johann Kasper Mertz)
Jim Prelude in E minor (Weiss)
Costanza Julia Florida (Agustin Barrios)

In the time remaining, we played -

Dance of the Gliding Maidens by Alexander Borodin.
