Dear All,

Ed can't make it to Gibside sadly because he's working away at the Sage. If you're passing, do drop in for great music, especially the 5.30pm gig.

Thanks!

PLAY Festival

The Sage Gateshead PLAY festival is happening this weekend - celebrating ten years of Learning and Participation's extraordinary life changing activity (of which we are part).

All the information can be found on its website here.

A particular highlight is the Jambone / Brass Jaw gig on Saturday night. Jambone is our Regional Youth Jazz Orchestra, and they're damned good. In this concert they're performing with the DScottish professional quartet, Brass Jaw. If you're into jazz - come along.

Trinity Church Concert Repertoire

Here is the programme as it stands for our concert at Trinity Church on 23^rd July. It is, of course, subject to change, but it looks damned exciting.

Enid will be in touch about the Gibside repertoire, but it will be light and unaccompanied.

(I also came across this performance by a quartet - wonder if we should include eyebrow raising, knee bending and arm flapping in our performance? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kM97xF41izs)
