Would you be interested in a one day performance workshop for instrumentalists and singers, with the services of a professional theatre coach in the morning followed by an informal concert in the afternoon?

I'm looking at either Saturday 29 May (Bank Holiday weekend) or Saturday 5 June 2010, from 10.30 a.m. to 5 pm. Venue would be the Riverside Arts Centre, Sunbury on Thames, which has excellent facilities (including a new Yamaha grand piano), with parking a few minutes' walk away and well served by public transport. Cost would be around £20 for the day.

I need to establish whether there would be enough interest before making definite bookings (though I can't confirm the date until 6 months before the event as the regular groups that use the hall have priority bookings until then).

Please respond if you are interested!

Interested, but I'm abroad on 5th June, so wouldn't be able to make it.

Up for it if on the 29th May.

Will bring something that isn't a clarinet...

Whether I bring the 'cello will largely depend on how far I've got with it by late May. If I can cope at around grade 1 sort of level by then, it'll probably be 'cello I'll use, otherwise, I'll probably either go for saxophone, flute or recorder. smile.gif

I played my cello at the very first Forums Concert in Chertsey when I had been playing for five months. I was definitely pre-grade 1 standard! Katyjay will confirm this. So, no excuses Barry!

I hadn't picked up on the fact that you were learning the Cello Barry, I long to have a go at the cello, such a beautiful instrument. When did you start to learn?

France. I think I remember most of my French. Which at least means I won't starve laugh.gif
