So many titles, so little time...

There really is so much going on that I haven't the time to write elliptically about it all.

Par exemple, today was spent playing through the newly written orchestral suite, Scenes from Bolton, with members of the Northern Chamber Orchestra. It was thoroughly enjoyable. The form tutor still managed to excoriate me for an apparent lack of work on my part. She pointed out how little work I'd done, and I agreed. She even hinted that it was not worthwhile, wherein I left, for orchestra rehearsal (because I clearly hadn't played the violin enough already). However, after a very reassuringly productive musical day (like Christmas Festival day, but more relaxed), orchestra went very well. I could play nearly all of it (pretty much at sight)and all was well.

I fear I am using too many brackets (but how many is too many?). Shame.

And it snowed. Silly Southerners couldn't cope. We ploughed on regardless. Three cheers for the work ethic. =/.
