Camber music 26-27

Please continue to hold the Saturdays before the concert days for either an additional concert or else a rehearsal.

Cellists: I’ve suggested a split for you between 1/2 but happy if you want to change it round. Suggested Xanthe do cello 1 on Mozart as well as Brahms as Jon is doing more concerts overall.

9 May Dry Drayton
Rehearsal schedule:
Saturday 8 May – PLEASE HOLD FOR REHEARSAL

Rep tbc – may get pared down to quartet concert but if inner voices can keep holding for now that gives us a bit of flexibility.
Or might do another viola quintet but don’t have time to listen to more now! Mozart C major again could be nice with some part shuffling from last time, or maybe the early Mendelssohn.

Paula violin 1
Alice/Monica/Penny inner voices
Jon cello

Schoenberg Transfigured Night
