Last Month

We had a nice guitar society meeting last time. This included a good practice session of guitar group pieces, some appealing playing by other members. Marion introduced a few pieces played by Sharon Isbin (CD) and Jane and Owen playing a beautiful Coste duo.

Julia – a new member, played a beautiful Spannish piece, Amber played the wonderful and enigmatic Louree from the 4th Lute Suite in E Major (for guitar) and Jamie played the superb double. All great music and lovely playing.

Young James did his second society performance with an excellent rendition of What then is Love and a Mozart allegro.

It was a very nice meeting to attend. Thanks everyone for either being there or playing..
