Our traditional visit to Cambridge to share a concert with Cambridge Guitar Orchestra was a couple of weeks earlier this year, in the second week of June. And what a great time it was!
There's every indication that something else might become a tradition too - a shared concert with Flautissimo, the Southampton Flute Orchestra, who play up to 5 different sizes of flute. This year it was our turn to host the evening and we met at St George's Portsea.
In July, it was up to Richmond for a concert at the Star & Garter home.

are two feet!
After the concert, a cup of tea and a breath-taking view in the gardens of the Home.
