Haydn Concerto with SELO – done… Overall, I think the performance went very well. The Orchestra accompanied brilliantly, and it was a very (surprisingly) relaxing affair. It was a fantastic experience to play a concerto with full orchestra, and especially to quite a large and very appreciative audience. National Finals with Regent Brass – done… Even got some good comments from the Judges…. Overall we finished, er.. in last place, but hey.. not to worry, there is always next year…
If variety is the spice of life, I certainly have variety this coming Autumn/Winter with regard to the concerts and contests I have in my schedule so far! First up is my first time playing a full Concerto on Trumpet with the South East London Orchestra in September. I will be playing the Haydn Concerto in Eb, which I’m sure everyone is familiar with, which makes my job that bit harder. Also on the programme that afternoon is Weber’s Oberon…
