The past two rehearsals have been spent reading through volumes 1 and 5 of the Music For Three arrangements, with the goal of choosing an hour’s worth of programming for our upcoming nursing home gig. I think today we settled on:
- Haydn flute trio in D (3 movements)
- Three pieces by Fritz Kreisler: Liebesfreud, Liebeslied, and Schoen Rosmarin
- Three Stephen Foster songs arranged by our pianist: Beautiful Dreamer, Jeannie with the Light Brown Hair, and Oh Susannah
- Three dances by Lully: Air Tendre, Courante, and Sarabande
I think they will provide a nice atmosphere for Tea, and are a manageable amount of work. All good!
