What a great idea.  The nearest I came to something like this was
10a.m.-4.30.p.m..  at a Church in Folkestone;pay 5.00.take sandwiches (free
tea and coffee) and have a day singing Beatus Vir, (we ended the day doing
this for our chauffeuse/s with double violin and piano acc.)Haydn Te Deum
and a few other things.  Sight reading for most of us-from all over Kent.
My idea of fun.

When we lived in Kent, I had an assortment of instrumental friends, who
used to come round at half -term, and once ended up with half a dozen,from
young clarinettist to near Professional oboeist.  At the end of the day one
young lady looked at me and said- "Idon't know how you do it!" "Enthusiasm"
I said.  Guess who was the only accompanist?
