OK, the details - nothing too long (3/4mins max), probably clari solo as I don't know anyone who will be able to play piano on the day, and nothing too difficult either otherwise I'll panic and fall to pieces! Thanks folks (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Thanks folks (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Can you find/use a CD player there? If so, there are some pretty 'Guest Spot' books that are a possibility : one I can think of (Classical Favourites? I think (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) ) has 'Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring' and the Air from Handel's Water Music, amongst others, and neither of those are particularly difficult.

Thanks Barry (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) might be able to use a CD player, will have to check. As for 'Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring' , well, that will depend on the key it's in!
