CTMG (Crieff Traditional Music Group)

The last evening of term Friday 12th - will be just for us, and selected guests. We can't get the main hall that night, so there's no room for a lot of people. We'll have a table for snacks and drinks, and everyone is welcome to do a wee turn if they wish. We'll also be playing lots of sets as an ensemble, so hopefully you can make it, and I'll see you there.

Looking forward to it - should be fun!

Thanks to everybody who made it a great evening: Eddie, Douglas and Mike for giving us some great sing-alongs; Jake for wowing us with the pipes; Kenny for superb melancholy; Charlie was having us in stitches; Bill for showing us how the penny whistle plays ragtime; the Strathearn Bluegrass Band for justifying all that practice (you were great, guys!) and the whole ensemble for making it just right: a musical evening with friends.

One of the highlights of the evening was the bluegrass group, who - I'm afraid to say - surprised me by being SO GOOD! I was given a CD of their rehearsals, which I've just listened to, and it's great. I'm just sorry that I can't attend these Sunday nights more, but by the time Sunday comes along, I'm usually very tired and just want to stay at home. But believe me, I have become a fan, and I'll support you in any way I can.
