The End of T1

Thank you staff and campers of T1 for making it a week to remember. The afternoon was really enjoyable and the performances so totally captured the essence and spirit of camp. It was so evident that everyone had a musically fulfilling and enjoyable week and this was so exciting to see. Thank you all again!

Thank you James

Thank you James, for directing another fantastic week. Looking forward to tomorrow.

Last nights campfire

The camp orchestra had a full run through today of all three pieces. All went well, especially a new tango arrangement featuring an entire accordion section! Woodwind and strings

How many orchestras have you seen with an accordion section?.

Choreography and vocals

Thursday
A few pictures from this afternoon at camp. All is going well, and there are some very exciting projects emerging. It was nice today seeing groups of campers preparing group items, and forming their own ensembles and groups
We were able to come by footage of the first camps that Avril had put onto video. Dave edited some of it, and showed the campers. They were amazed at how basic everything was, and will be recreating some of what they saw in the sports this afternoon (Walking backwards race and egg and spoon). A few familiar faces in the film, Avril, Jacqui and Alec Dankworth, Alison Tumber, Jane Lloyd, Neil Conti and me playing bassoon among others. We hope to show it all three camps.
