And a FAB wink.gif student of mine came for the first time.



That pun's almost as bad as mine laugh.gif

Glad you all had fun biggrin.gif
Cyrilla
We most certainly did, thank you!

Just thought I'd mention that the British Kodaly Academy's Spring Course is imminent - April 12th-15th in Cambridge.

Places are still available - please see www.britishkodalyacademy.org, or PM me for more details.

Going to make the most of this one, as I'll be in France for the June one...
barry-clari
Cyrilla, have seen on the latest choir email that 10th July is down as a possible meeting date, do you know how likely it is there will be a rehearsal on that day? smile.gif
Cyrilla
Yes, 10th July has been on the calendar for a while.

The rest of this term are 1st May, 5th June, 10th July. However this last one isn't being run by David as he'll be in Oz for the International Kod?ly Symposium - Alan Murdock (sings tenor) will be taking that session instead.

See you tomorrow!!

Can't sadly make the June meet, see you all again on 10th July! smile.gif

Aww, it was fun, although I managed to screw up on more than one occasion - argh, kept losing concentration and then whoops! bye-bye rhythm, bye-bye pitch, bye-bye vegetables...

I'm sure we can make the opportunity arise, Louise biggrin.gif

Louise, you weren't the only one looking blink.gif and wacko.gif . I did really appallingly yesterday (yes, Baz, ESPECIALLY in the Stanford rolleyes.gif )- but it was still fun - so, yes, I do hope you'll be back!

Oops - I knew there was someone there whom I left off my forum list - benjaminja had come all the way up from Bristol to be there!

good to know others were feeling the same! Wasn't just the Stanford, was also the Morley, the Senfl, the de Pearsall, the Bach..... Yes pretty much all of it. The word help for some reason kept coming into my head laugh.gif

If I have someone to copy then perhaps the notes match but I can't look at the music, see, for example, a C and be able to pitch it correctly.

It was good, thank you, Louise!

Small forums contingent this afternoon - just me, Bagpuss, Willard and Panthera. Bag can't usually come because she teaches all day on a Sunday but it's half-term smile.gif .

Sang some wonderful Dowland, Giardini. Michael Haydn, Gasparini, Stanford...

Especial wub.gif for the Dowland.
