The Lute Society: Playing Day 9 Oct 2004

Playing day in London -- 2004, October 9

It’s time for another playing day - and you’re invited!
Stewart McCoy and Gordon Gregory are running a Lute Society Playing day on Saturday, October 9 at Gordon's house in Hackney, London (address, phone number and directions) (link to London A to Z map).

If you're travelling by public transport, Transport for London's journey planner is very helpful. Just enter your postcode and ours (E97AS) and their webpage will show you all the options.

There should be 10 to 15 players and as usual, Stewart will tailor the music to suit all abilities.

Beginners are particularly welcome and special arrangements will be made for them, so do encourage any you know to make the trip.

The day will start at 10.30ish, but try to arrive before 11 so Stewart can organise the ensembles. Formal playing will continue till 6.30, informal playing and singing will go on as late as we wish.

Please bring: as many lutes and other early plucked instruments as you can (bass or other unusual-sized lutes especially), a music stand, food and drink contributions to a buffet lunch and supper if you wish to stay on in the evening.

The cost will be £12.

The venue is Gordon Gregory's house: 18 Meynell Crescent, Hackney, London E9 7AS (tel: 020 8985 7422)
