Forum Event Calendar 2007, plan your forum year here!!!! Options

[jod]

I've just spoken to their secretary and pencilled in the day.

They will email me a booking form and I'll send them the deposit after Christmas. This is now an event that can take place.

Cambridge Forums Concert July 14th 2007 at Emmanuel URC, Trumpington Street. As the church has a lovely organ, Organists please take note because a solo performance would be very much appreciated, and if you're prepared to accompany the choir I can do some stunning anthem with them! (My choral conducting is up to that)

The usual other ensembles will be great, directors for them are welcome. (I want to play).


All those who have volunteered to help, please keep in contact and we can allocate tasks so that no one person is over loaded.

I'll change the calendar now, after I've done that, I'll send you a PM. It may be a fairly long PM.......

Hi, jod!
I've just come into this thread (I did find some of it rather puzzling (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) ) but at this distance July 14th looks a good time for a 'local' concert.
Not only is Cambridge a super place, but it's not too far (for me).

I will keep this in mind and when I know definitely I will be in touch.
Thanks for 'launching' this.

Given my parents-in-law hail from Norwich, I am very aware that East Anglia is on a bit of a Limb. Cambridge is where I was brought up (though I live about 10 miles away), it is easy to reach from London, and there are reasonable links to the midlands.

I felt that there was a need for a concert in the area, and am prepared to do the bulk of the organisation. Those North of the Border are a long way from where concerts have taken place too, and I'm sure that the Scottish Concert will be a success.


Barri has already offered to sort out the finale for me.

Wanted: recorder player to sort out recorder consort
Wanted: Organist to accompany choir

Other help has been offered. People here don't seem slow in coming forward to help to which I'm very grateful.

Lets hope for another success.

PS as a teacher of adult learners I know how important it is for all adult learners to have an opportunity to perform, so lets hear it for the adult learners concerts too!

I am with you all the way!!
It's a shame how many people, when you mention Norwich, say "goodness! it's so difficult to get to!" But it's lovely out here (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) It will be great to have a concert in East Anglia.

I guess you can't be far away from Burwell House... I know some youngsters who were there in October for the "Blow". And Cambridge itself is lovely.

Performing is a 'pet' of mine, as it's not the same as playing, is it?
And the least I can do is some sausage rolls and cakes for the day (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

My mother lives in Burwell and I grew up in Newmarket...

Yes, he has. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

It'll almost certainly be a flexi-work (a la Leicester) again - but I won't really be thinking about this until the Leicester and Leeds committments are more or less complete.

Once we get to around mid-April (after Easter), I shall give what is rapidly becoming my usual plea for what instruments people are bringing on the day. Watch this space (or, perhaps more accurately the space jod will create on a separate thread no doubt!) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Hi Jo

It's been nice to talk to you off-forum (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

July 14th is the weekend of my jazz festival at Whitley Bay so I won't be able to come to Cambridge, I'm afraid. Hopefully we'll get the opportunity to meet up either at one of the East Midlands playdays maybe, or if you get the chance to come to Leeds, you'll be very welcome. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Hope your Cambridge concert goes well.

Driving to Market Harborough is not the problem. That I can do easily. Unfortunately I'm busy on Sundays (hubby being a CofE priest) and being given time off my duties as a mum is hard to come by. I do intend to get to someone elses event. Oh the perils of motherhood in the 21st Century! I hope that when I'm on retreat my hubby finds he really appreciates time with the children without me about. I know I need more time away (trouble is does he?) Oh and I'd love to come to Leeds... without the family in tow.

I don't know if it makes it any easier jod, but the next MH playday is a Saturday. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Only if I put my foot down and tell the family this is my time and I need to do something for me. (But they're very bad at taking me seriously)
