After the success of Phantom and Summertime at the last Tempo concert - finding music for the MetroNomes to grow and develop their playing and ensemble skills has been challenging. However - I think we have it!
Feeling Good - made famous by Michael Buble and one of my favourite versions by Muse has proved to be so much fun after the initial run through today. There are a few things I need to check on the parts, but after the initial confusion over the 12/8 time signature (not so much the notes but the rests that trip you up here) we were able to make it sound amazing!
We have a new member too! Kimberly Jones on piano has enabled Annabelle to jump on a sax (that makes 2 sax parts!!) So our lineup at the moment consists of 1 cornet, 2 sax (1 clarinet returning) 2 violins, electric bass, piano and drums.
The next piece was revealed today to an enthusiastic response (and impromptu singing) so watch out Tempo! We're on our way to having the most amazing set list.
Looking forward to seeing what we can do!
