Dear string players and string teachers,
Following the request to change the 8th April Camerata date, I have now received confirmation from Nathalie at Folkestone School for Girls that Saturday 22nd April is free for us to use.
So the next Camerata Strings Workshop will now take place on Saturday 22nd April 2017 in the Drama Studio of the Folkestone School for Girls in Folkestone.
If you are interested in taking part, please open the attached letter which gives you all the details you need to know to take part, including the programme, and the form to fill in and return to take part. The letter also includes all the other workshop dates for 2017.
Do spread the word and speak to your friends or relatives who might be interested in attending. You need to be roughly grade 5 standard upwards to get the most out of the day. You will not necessarily be able to play all the notes, but you will definitely learn a lot about chamber music playing and have fun discovering the strings repertoire.
If you are a teacher and you think one of your students might be interested or might benefit from attending, feel free to give them a letter or forward them this email.
All the best,
Flo Peycelon
This is a peculiarly addictive production – many of my friends have been to all the productions since the Sinfonia were invited to join, and look forward greatly to the event. Tickets go very quickly once released. Perhaps it is the combination of a reminder of the great story of Christmas without being too religious, the awful Christmas cracker jokes of Richard Carroll and the opportunity to sing much loved carols at full belt with accompaniment from the talented Wes Carroll and the assembled musicians.
