Come and play with the Double Reed Band!

Hi everyone,

Come and play Bernstein's West Side Story, in an arrangement for DOUBLE REED BAND (oboes, cor anglais and bassoons). Everyone is welcome. Lots of people on each part, wrong notes won't be noticed, it doesn't matter if you can't play more than a few notes here and there. Just come along and have fun! 

This is a FREE event and part of the NZDRS Feast of NZ Music for Double Reed Ensemble.

3pm 
Saturday 21 July
Mt Eden Village Centre

Send us an email at nzdoublereeds@gmail.com if you would like to be involved, with details of your instrument and your level, and we will send you some music to try out beforehand.

Here are some tasters:
Thanks to Wonderful Winds and the arranger, Alfie Pugh  http://wonderfulwinds.com/Windbags--Double-Reeds(1976693).htm

Look forward to seeing you there!
