Last night I played in a charity concert for the Butterfly Appeal with the Surrey Phil. As I was a little later to the rehearsal than intended I missed rehearsing the two pieces I hadn't played before. Ever. So you can imagine my joy when the conductor asked me to sit on the front desk of the second violins. It isn't very often you get to sight read a piece, and it's even less often you get to do it twice in one concert. Still, the event was a huge success, with very few empty seats indeed, so it was worthwhile.
Talking of worthwhile, please check out the concert listings for next year and let me know if you want tickets. We need all the support we can get too, so we don't go under.
