Holy Trinity Church, Gawcott |
| Around 90 people formed the audience for the BCO's first concert on June 5th in Holy Trinity Church, Gawcott,Buckingham. A balmy evening, with some wine and nibbles made it a perfect setting for the event. Unusually the Orchestra started the concert with a full Symphony, the Haydn 104th, bravely beginning with a bold unison 'D'. Conductor Catherine Rose struck up a good rapport with her audience from the beginning. |
| The lively Minuet and Trio from Dvorak's Wind Serenade followed, as Catherine said 'as the jam in the sandwich'. Some excellent playing by the oboes and clarinets made this a sparking interlude. After an extended interval the evening was brought to a close with Mozart's brooding 40th Symphony, and to calls for 'more', the Orchestra took a final bow. |

| Thanks must go to all who helped make this evening such a success - the Committee, Catherine and all the players. |
