Hi Everyone

Having attended two Stalybridge Adult Learners Concerts and two Eccels Playdays I thought it was about time I joined the Forum officially.

Of course I already know that you are all very nice people and I'm looking foward to meeting some more of you at the Chester Event. At the moment I'm identified as Rachi's pupil on that thread!

I learned piano as a child and then did no music at all until I joined a local choir 4 years ago. I then decided to take up the clarinet, mainly because it's something I've always wanted to do and if I don't do it now I never will! Anyway, I passed Grade 3 back in March so I'm quite satisfied with my progress and having a great time as well. Of course I have a great teacher (don't blush Rachi!)

I think I'll go and identified myself on the Chester Forum Concert thread.

Hiya welcome to the forum! I'll go and change your identity on the Chester programme for you.

Hope you have fun here : see you at Chester!

Hello jan.

We met at Stalybridge (or at least we did if you were there this year and you're who I think you are). I did the flute duet and a solo.

Glad you've decided to join the forum.

Good to see you on here.
And I agree about the great teacher.

See you at orchestra on Friday.

too...

Thanks Flossie and sbhoa for your welcome. Yes I was at Stalybridge this year and I think I remember you Flossie.

Now where did I put my orchestra music?

That makes 2 great clari teachers who have had the pleasure( ) of teaching me.
(sorry for the hijack.)

I was the other half of that flute duet jan2 - that should tell you who Flossie is

Yes I remember now

You ready for Chester?

Getting there!

Of course there's the duet with lois to think about as well, perhaps I'd better go and do some practice.

By the way, my daughter has just looked at what I'm doing and said she liked the name barry-clari!

You're going to be great You've been great at each of the gigs so far!



Hello jan2's daughter! Glad you like my name!

Welcome Jan. Though I have been an active forumite for 3 yrs now, Chester will be my first event (I live quite near). I look forward to meeting you.

Welcome to the forum - I note that you sing in a choir!

Hello Jan2

Thanks Barry, you're making me blush

I haven't worked out yet how to include multiple quotes in one reply hence the many separate posts


Oh now I see they are all put in one. Ok I'll work it out slowly!




Thanks to you as well violoinhero!

Do you want the clarinet and the finale parts for Chester in advance jan2?



Have replied to your request on the other thread. Bit of telepathy going on here I think!

Hi jan2 I'm to call you Janis Joplin, ok.

Hello to you as well Voltron, how did you get your name, I like it!

I've been called a few things in my life but never Janis Joplin! still I don't mind, I'll look out for you in the rest of the forum, you sound like quite a character.

Hi Jan

Look forward to seeing you around

I'm learning clarinet too, and I also took up piano last year - great aren't they

Hello!!!!

I got my name from the movie 'Hot Rod' but later figured out it was a toy. Anyhoo I'll look out for you too Janis.
