THE PROJECT!

Greetings from Bad Fredeburg! This week I am away rehearsing with my quintet for two concerts and an education workshop, which will take place next week in and around Cologne. We started today with a run-through of the whole programme, followed by several hours of great rehearsal attacking Berio's "Call", Turner's "Ricochet for Brass Quintet" and Reich's "Clapping Music", which was an interesting moment! We at least got from the start to the end together - I cannot vouch for the section in the middle due to the focus required on not getting lost in my own part! Counting one bar 12 times then shifting the beat all the time is more challenging that it might sound... I will try and update every day this week with our developments! Now we are going to chill before another day tomorrow! Cheers, F :)
