Our pre- was a joyful and noisy success! Thanks to all the young spooks, skeletons and ghouls who came out to have a go a the assorted violins, trumpets, clarinets, shawms, banjos and more.
Many thanks to our partners at the Elgar School of Music andHerefordshire Music Service – run by Encore Enterprises CIC for their support providing instruments and tutors.
Everyone who came was offered a voucher for a free lesson at the Elgar School, so we look forward to seeing our young guests soon to continue discovering the joys of playing an instrument.
Our heartfelt thanks to all the ESO musicians who threw themselves into the spirit of the event (and came up with some fantastic costumes!), the Music Theatre Company of the Elgar School of Music, and to our inspired host- Matthew Sharp, who gave us a tour de force of singing, acting, cello playing and improv.
