“On July 26th we held the first of our two RBD memorial recitals in aid of Hospice in the Weald. For our 17th season we had a sold out audience and only a few drops of rain. The sun re-appeared in time for the buffet tea. Once again Daniel Grimwood was the chosen performer, as he was for the first memorial recital in 2008. His selection of music was extraordinary as he is preparing for his 2nd. appearance at the `rare repertoire event` in Husum in Germany. He did squeeze in some Rachmaninov and the mandatory Henselt. The Steinway sounded better than ever, despite the nearby pipe burst. Our thanks go to our regular piano tuner, Geoff Sapswood and Academy Flooring who replaced the entire area, just in time.
We managed to raise £1,091 for Hospice in the Weald, after expenses plus we heard some wonderful music! The next event is Wednesday August 27th, when Florian Verweij will come from Holland, plus a special extra guest, Leslie Howard, to play a duet. Tickets in advance only from Gillian Davis 01580-850384.”
