As we have already missed two rehearsals because of bad weather this term, with the possibility of more snow to come, general agreement was that we don't need a half-term break this month.
Yesterday we played The Barber of Seville Overture, (Rossini), again, also the Waltz from Tschaikowsky's ballet, the Sleeping Princess, and lastly made a start on La Calinda, a dance from Delius's opera, Koanga. For information about this opera click on the link to the Wikipedia entry in the panel on the right.
The Tschaikowsky score lacks reference marks and bar numbers, and to aid navigation Peter has asked us all to write in bar numbers at the beginning of each line in our parts.
