I don't want to 'tread on anyone's toes' so I just wondered what forumers thought about an adult learners concert in Gloucester, May 2011. Looking at the calendar there is nothing going on in May.

I have a potential venue in mind. My piano teacher, who is from South Africa and started teaching here about three years ago here is fully supportive of having a forum event in Gloucester as she was so impressed by Teddington earlier this year. I would hope to generate some local interest.

Would anyone be interested in coming to Gloucester? The venue is a five minute walk from the train station and there is a car park near the venue.

Here is a link to the webpage for the concert on June 4th.

All welcome

I don't think you have to be an adult learner to play at a forum event!

Depends on the event : I'm sure scotliz will be along to confirm soon. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

PianoNotes : the National Express coach service is a viable alternative to/from Gloucester (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

This one is specifically billed as an Adult Learners event. Although I am an adult and still learning, I don't think that's quite what is meant!! Which is why I said I'm happy to turn up if anyone needs a violist in order to have a bash at some quartets or somesuch.

Well then, perhaps we should hook up and play a piece for violin, viola and percussion (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)
