Posted: Tue Jan 21, 2014 8:21 am
Hi all,
My band's Principal Euphonium is in the US and Canada from next week, and he's just published his schedule if anyone wants to catch him. I played on his solo CD to be released this weekend, stunning stuff, and we give the UK premiere of McGhee's "Kjeden" this weekend the day before he sets off! Happy to put people in touch if you pm me...
