Band
Messages
| AGM has now been and gone
and our new committee is in place. |
| Gabrielle Horne sent this
message for all members of the band after being our guest conductor for the
annual concert. |
"Thankyou to everyone who took part in the concert. As a conductor and "musician" I was amazed at how you pulled it off. I felt proud and
honoured to work with you and felt that you all gave 100% on the night (and more).
OK there were a few slips, but that's live music for you. I have heard only favourable comments and I was particularly pleased that a member of the audience thought that the cornets sounded like cornets...as you will know that is a little bee in my bonnet.
I'm sorry if I did not mention everyone individually, but perhaps you were glad!
I especially want to thank the main guys (committee) for getting it all organised....I know what a headache it can be.
I was delighted to be reunited with ex-pupils and to meet some new
faces. Thankyou for asking me - I had a great time.
Hard though it may be, keep it going - IT'S WORTH IT!
I wish you all the very best this year, whether working, studying or just dossing
around (like me).
I would always be pleased to hear from any. my e-mail is gabrielle@gmhmd.force9.co.uk"
