In Alexander’s in Rufus court a monthly Jazz jamming session is held on the last Wednesday of each month. Hosted by Louis Noble and the quartet “So What”, it is an interesting evening in which you can participate. Each month there is normally a collection of brass and wind instruments, together with singers and guitarists.
Turn up at 8pm ish, and enjoy Bangers and Mash for £3.95, and get in for free (entry normally £3.00)! Music starts after nine.
See Paul or Martin for more details.
Emma Johnson, clarinet soloist, is performing in Chester on the 10th February 2010 with John Lenehan on piano. Should be an excellent concert! For more details visit the
website.
Warning - the concert is sold out - please contact for ticket availability before travelling!
Following the AGM, there have been two changes to the Committee. Jackie takes over from Gill as treasurer, and June, Norman and Karen take over from Lynsey as Librarians.
I am sure you will all join me in thanking Gill and Lynsey for their service to the band, and in welcoming Jackie, June and Norman into their new roles.
