Director: Malcolm Singer 2003
Theme: Night Music
| Another superb week of
music making; composing and playing night
music inspired by Henri Dutieux. The
group was a mixed bunch who all got on
very well. Many thanks to Malcolm for
managing to keep the 16 of us in order
and on schedule, despite the extra
session we sprung on him! Thanks to Jo
Treasure for getting this piano recital
together and keeping it a surprise. She'd
been organising the event since the
beginning of the year - a piano recital
with pieces written especially for
Malcolm's 50th birthday (earlier in the
year) by many participants, past and
present.
| The hottest week at Canford ever!? |
|
|
|
| The week will be
remembered for being a scorcher. We all found the heat difficult to deal
with at times, apart from the Spanish contingent who loved it! The
outdoor swimming pool at Canford School helped to cool some of us down,
and keep our brains active. There
were 2 birthday cakes this year. The one for Malcolm, and one for Piers
from his parents. Piers was 18 on the day of the concert. The concert
began with "Meanwhile I Play" by Malcolm in memory of Jane Longhurst who
tragically died earlier this year.
