The Foxestalk Symphony Orchestra

Recommended Posts

No instrument I'm afraid but being ex-Leicester Cathedral choir I might make any male-voice accompaniment if such were planned though I wouldn't hold your breath. :whistle:

However, my youngest lad is, I believe, registered on Foxestalk and a very occasional contributor and, when he practices you couldn't tell a number of his party pieces on piano from Richard Clayderman himself. Indeed at one time I used to have a tape of his playing it was such easy listening but I'm probably being a biased parent.

He won a few competitions, most notably at Oundle School, and his interpretation of Nutrocker by B Bumble and the Stingers is guaranteed to get anyone going. Sadly, he rarely plays now. :D

thats the " old spice aftershave " ad right :unsure:

and we've got , a trumpet ,tuba , cowbell, drums and recorder :mellow: yeah ok , that could work

We will be playing Carmina Burana. And if the cowbell has to step up and play the entire string section score then so be it.

Thracian you are the first member of the choir. Congratulations. Carmina Burana has a fantastic choir part. You will need to be on form.

And your son is more than welcome. This is going swimmingly.

Having your own stick is the clincher. You are the composer. You have a good name for a composer too.

Don't you mean Conductor?

I can play clarinet, saxophone, keyboard, a smidge of piano and the bass guitar.

Slot me in wherever.

How embarrassing. I'm a classically trained musician and I don't even know what the f**king bloke with the stick is called.

You will play clarinet Alex.

There has to be space for a guitar of some description.

Not really an orchestral instrument is it I'm afraid.

Although if you hold it a bit funnily we can pretend it's a cello. You're in.

Yes but that's not my orchestra and frankly they should be ashamed. Joe, you're on cello. Take it or leave it.

Too much effort.

One ding of a triangle right at the end and take all the glory, it'll do me just fine.

i can only play acoustic and electric guitar, but I'll have a go on classic guitar, even though they are rather weird to play

so put me down for classic guitar (or bass, every orchestra needs a bass)
