Thank you to the 23 musicians and 5 staff who have just returned from a fabulous mini-tour to Belgium. They performed brilliantly in St Nicholas Church, Ghent and Brussels Cathedral to large audiences. Repertoire included Haydn's Violin Concerto in C, Bach Double, Vivaldi Four Violin Concerto, Vivaldi 'Spring' and CPE Bach's Cello Concerto in c minor. Not your average school concert repertoire! It was such a pleasure to work with them and enjoy the delights of Belgian chocolate and waffles!
