Dear
Cellist,
You
are invited to take part in a ¨cello flash mob¨
in the foyer of the Wales
Millennium Centre, Cardiff at 5pm on Saturday
18th August 2007.
All
cellists are invited, please pass this on to anybody you think
may be interested. All ages, all abilities. There are some very
easy parts for all the pieces.
It
is a one-off performance, there is no rehearsal, goodness knows
how many of us may turn up…….the more the merrier!
We
will be playing the 1st movement of Karl Jenkins – Palladio
arranged specially for this event in 5 cello parts, a selection
of fun pieces by Tony Osborne (The Pink Elephant / Down at the
OK Corral / Green Bass Blues / Habanera) and other items (including
The Simpsons, Star Wars, The Muppets, Pink Panther, The Flintstones
and Jaws!) arranged for cello orchestra by Rachel Webley.
All
the composers are aware and supportive of this venture and we
are very grateful to them for this and also to Peter Reynolds
for allowing us to use the WMC.
What
you need to do :
1.
Please forward this on to every cellist you know (!)
2.
On the day please arrive by 4.30pm at the latest. You will need
your cello and bow (obviously!), a music stand and a spike holder
(it’s a slippery, shiny floor and we may be sitting on
benches not chairs).
3.
There is no dress code, wear what you want (!)
Any
questions? Don’t be afraid, get in touch!
It’s
all for fun!
