Manchester Camerata Concert on Saturday last

These concerts in the Coro never cease to inspire me.

The standard of the latest was sky high and the whole orchestra played very well.

A lot was due to the conductor who instilled a lot of enthusiasm in the musicians and thence to the whole hall.

There was a great sense of fun throughout. Well known works where brought to life so that you noticed for the first time harmonies and ways of playing that had been missed before.

The atmosphere for me surpassed the Last Night of the Proms which the program emulated.

Good to be part of a packed house.

Inspired me to achieve the same standard of excellence in my present projects, especially the Flowers/Parks one.

Feeling very grateful that these people travel all the way from Manchester to entertain us.

Aren't we lucky to have this standard of entertainment here in Ulverston!
