Hey @AMinhall & @ClassicFM we’ve got Val from Cambridge in @scarboroughspa listening to us this morning! She’s got her deck chair & we even played her Franz Lehar on request 😀
She says thank you for playing The Merry Widow for her a few weeks ago!

Today’s the day!
If you’re at a loose end in #Scarborough this morning, why not come to the Sun Court @scarboroughspa for 10am and see us filming for @thismorning
Let’s fill those deck chairs & show the nation that the last remaining pro seaside orchestra is here to stay! 💪🎶 – at York, England
🎶EXCITING NEWS🎶
On Thursday morning, the Legendary #Scarborough Spa Orchestra is playing 2 live slots on @thismorning! We're on at 10:20 & 10:50, so tune in!
We'd love our Sun Court to be full for filming, so come down to @scarboroughspa for 10am & you may even get in shot!

Tune in to @thismorning tomorrow morning at 10.20 & 10.50am when our very own @SpaOrchestra will be live from the Sun Court. Or, even better, pop along to @scarboroughspa and fill up those deckchairs and maybe even get your face on TV!

It’s definitely an inside concert this morning… ☔️
But never fear, the @scarboroughspa orchestra will still be playing for you at 11am in the Grand Hall!
If you can’t go to the beach, why not come and listen to the country’s last remaining professional seaside orchestra?!

Lovely end of the week, receiving the second place prize in the panel choice staff category in @UoLDocSchool & @Lincoln_IAS Images of Research competition, with a photo taken by Christopher Leedham of @DanicaMaier and my project ‘Score: Mechanical Asynchronicity’. Jolly good.

ALT In this image – taken by project producer Christopher Leedham – four musicians perform at the Sir Jack Lyons Concert Hall, University of York. Each musician operates a record player which plays a recorded version of the same music they are playing live. Different combinations of live musicians and vinyl are explored in the performance.

Celebrating again our concert last Saturday @York_Minster with a wonderful huge audience welcoming us back to live performance! We enjoyed the review by Martin Dreyer on Charles Hutchinson's blog.

@JSageClarinet and I stripped the metalwork off a clarinet. Any the holes can be blocked/opened as required (for multiphonics).
Much fun! but more experimentation needed: high partials 'pop' more without the pads covering the holes (working theory).

The inimitable Rick Scoates basking in the glory of his Hysterics Rag this morning. Suffice to say we think the orchestra found it as entertaining as the audience!
Relaxing with @JSageClarinet in the sun court.
Roll on the next 2 weeks!
