Inverurie Concert Band

Saturday saw the Inverurie Concert Band's summer concert, a tour of the home countries with music from England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales.  All went smoothly with the exception of the fire alarm in the middle of the English Sea Song Suite! (Fire alarm edited out!).  Have to admit whilst I enjoyed playing most of the pieces I will not be sorry to see the back of the Irish Washerwoman and and the Four Scottish Dances by Malcolm Arnold, movements 1,2 &3 were OK but the fourth was a killer to play!  Should have followed Isobel's lead and taken up something like a baritone sax with a nice straightforward base line!
