REYNARD MUSIC "CLARINET CHOIR"
Arrive Thursday 23 or Friday 24 August,
Depart Sunday 26 February, 2012 (2/3 nights)
at: Yarn Market Hotel, Dunster, TA24 6SF near Minehead, Somerset
The weekend will explore some of Reynard Music's 300 titles for clarinet choir. There will be opportunities in informal sessions for sampling the repertoire for clarinet trios, quartets and quintets. The Yarn Market Hotel offers en suite accommodation with excellent food in the fascinating mediaeval village of Dunster (the covered market building where cloths and yarns were sold is in front of the hotel). Playing sessions in the village hall 50 yards down the road. Grade 4+ probably needed for enjoyment.
Course starts 19.00 hrs Thursday with welcome reception and dinner, ends 16.30 Sunday. Hotel rooms available from 15.00 on day of arrival
On Friday and Saturday, lunch to afternoon teatime will be left free to be a tourist or to play clarinet trios/quartets/quintets from my extensive library (when I hope to play along with different groups).
For non-playing partners and free periods the hotel is within easy reach of the delights of the medieval village of Dunster, the Exmoor National Park, and the north Somerset coast.
An outing on the West Somerset Railway and a visit to the Gardens and Grounds of Dunster Castle ( National Trust stately home) is included in the price.
