Do you play a musical instrument? Please join us at our next Music Practice -
this is a relaxed and informal group of musicians (of varying abilities!) who
meet aproximately once a month to play traditional English country dance tunes. The tunes are chosen a couple of weeks in advance to give us time to practice them a little - we meet in each other's houses and play for around three hours or so, with a break for dessert or snacks.
We currently have the following instruments:piano, guitar, violin, flute, clarinet, cello, mandolin, oboe, viola da gamba and recorders of various sizes. There are also opportunities to play for the Sunday night dances in Poway should you wish to do so.
The tunes we play can all be found in "English Country Dance Tunes" vols one and
two, by Peter Barnes. For information on these books please visit his
web site.
