I went to a cheese and wine evening at the local music shop on Friday evening where they were promoting things like saxophones and flutes. There were a few teachers there, and the head of the local music centre too. She remembered me from when I used to go (about 10 years ago!) and also remembered that I played the 'cello. Whilst talking to the conductor of one of the orchestras she found out that they were lacking anything lower than a viola so happily announced "Claire plays 'cello... she'll be happy to come along." What?? WHO? As it happens I will happily come along, but talk about being plunged headlong!!
I used to play the 'cello in my teenage years. It's an all adult orchestra and apparently great fun. It's call Note-a-Riot-y, with the emphasis on Riot!! I now need to retrieve my 'cello from Coventry and mend it as it's all in pieces. But I'm looking forward to starting!
