St Georges Bristol

We've just finished for the year - our last concert for 2010 was in one of our favourite venues and second home, St Georges in Bristol. As always here the audience was warm and open to anything - we've brought them all our off-the-wall projects as well as most of the mainstream repertoire over the years - but lots of people emailed saying they'd like to know exactly what we played as they didn't always catch the title or composer from our announcements. So here's a list of what we and the wonderful Diana Baroni performed:

Hanacpachap Cussicuinin - Trad. Peruvian hymn
La Selosa - Trad. Peru (arr. Paul Cassidy)
Una Madre Comio Asado - Osvaldo Golijov (arr. Paul Cassidy)
Impresiones de la Puna - Alberto Ginastera
Puente de los Suspiros - Chabuca Granda (arr. Quito Gato)
The Anchor Song - Bjork (arr. Paul Cassidy)
Tenebrae - Osvaldo Golijov

Interval

La Oracion del Torero - Joaquin Turina
Around the Canela Flower - Gerardo Gandini
Maria Lando - Chabuca Granda (arr. Quito Gato)
Unravel - Bjork (arr. Paul Cassidy)
Prayer of the Heart - John Taverner
Fragile - Sting (arr. Paul Cassidy)

After the last few weeks of nearly getting caught in snow-bound airports or motorways but always narrowly escaping, we're gad to be home before the forecast arrival of more arctic weather in the UK. Looking forward to the new year which kicks off with a performance at the Royal Palace in Madrid, playing on four Strads which will be released from their vault for the occasion! Can't wait!
Enjoy the holiday season. (:
