Dear all,

We hope you have had a good half term break, and enjoyed the sunshine! Heartfelt thanks for your terrific playing in our May concert, particularly in the fine performance of Procession. We had a fantastic turn out, and all pieces were well received by our audience. There were many positive comments about the playing and our programme.

A lot of the music was chosen by members of the orchestra, and there were some great links in honour of our 50th anniversary year. Special thanks must go to our volunteer helpers, who took charge of the ticket sales and the post concert buffet/drinks. Our extra players were also much appreciated, particularly in the brass and double bass sections.

Don’t forget we are back for four extra rehearsal sessions, 2, 9 16 and 23 June, before our 50th Anniversary Concert and finale for the Prescot Festival, on Sunday 28 June. More details about the rehearsal and concert at Prescot Parish Church to follow in due course.

See you at rehearsal and many thanks again,

Rob, Laura and the SLO Committee
