Hello there! Its been a busy few days! On Wed we all played in York. It was our first concert there as part of our residency at the University...maybe some of you caught it as it was broadcast live over the internet. It was a great venue and audience and we're all very excited to be part of the establishment!
On Thursday the 4tet played in Kettle's yard in Cambridge, a start to a residency we have there this year. We love playing there and look forward to out next trip on Feb 1st.
Then onto Barnsley on Fri, again just the 4tet. Is it just me or do the cakes just get better and better there?! They know the way to a musicians heart......
Fri was also my birthday. Yes I'm afraid I'm another year older. To cheer me up we headed to the Folk Festival in Sheffield and managed to catch Spiers and Boden, a great duo, who we are lucky enough to be having in the Crucible Studio on the 12th March...get it in your diaries now! Not to be missed!
Saturday was a day of rehearsal (and recovery) and then on Sunday we took the coach to Bowness on Windemere with some of the Friends of Music in the Round for our first "Around the Country" concert of the year. It was a beautiful day and some of us managed to fit in a boat trip up lake Windemere which was amazing on the way back as the sun was setting and the moon came out. A great time was had by all. Thanks to Tracy for organising it all so well.
The 4tet has also been busy editing our Mendelssohn 4tet cd. It will have Op 13, 80 and 81 on it and is due to be released in Jan/Feb. We're thinking of ideas for the cover....any suggestions??!
So that brings me to today, Monday, and we're playing in the Rising Sun from 830 I think so maybe see you there....

ps I also managed to catch a Kate Rusby gig on Sat in Derby. Absolutely amazing.
