Enjoyable afternoon indeed, the variation in genre is challenging but good.....grrrrrrrrr

[Tenor Viol]

Today's selection ran from 1621 (so that weird uniquely English period of late Renaissance / not quite Baroque) to 2017 with an arrangement specially for the group.

In case anyone was wondering, I have now got the score to the Rite of Spring and I will arrange the opening section for us... I just need a bit of time to do it.

No rush, honestly 😵

The piece requires one of the performers to dance themselves to death at the end. So if you are not careful, the septet will soon be a trio again!

The dancer is supposed to be young and a virgin.

I think the septet will be a 7 for the forseeable future🙂

Ugggg! For one orrible moment - I imagined @trimmy dressed in a long flowing, frilly white getup - prancing around you guys who were all trying to be sensible and playing The Rite of Spring ...

 

[brianr]

@trimmy dressed in a long flowing, white getup -

here he is at the last septet meeting. (friends were allowed that day too)

you can just see his alto on the seat to the right. He doesnt like to show his moves whilst he has his sax. it restricts his style.

And there I was about to nominate the lady member. Can't do without her, however.

She's the one who's always trying to get me to dance. Maybe it's attempted murder.
