My turn for a shamless pug.

I think I mentioned before that my youngest daughter is learning violin.  She's (thankfully) beyond the strangled cat stage and progressing well.
 
Our county has a few orchestras (orchestrae?) for young people (kids) that are supported by the local councils to encourage young musicians.   Once a year they all join up for a concert.
 
String Celebration 2012 was this years offering.   17 Double bass, over 50 Cellos more than 250 violins/violas, 4 percusionists, 5 harps and a piano.  The largest orchestra I've seen/heard in one place.
 
I took a bit of video with my iPhone.  I appologise for the "soft" focus...  I didn't realise the stupid thing had locked focus on the womans head sat right infront of me!
 
Also, I managed to sit in probably the only seat where I couldn't actually see Ellie...  so I've maked her in the video.  She somewhere in the middle of the 2nd violins, just infront of the bass drum.
 
Enjoy.

    I enjoyed the piece and the recording was pretty good (for a phone).

    Well done Mum!! Have you recorded any of her playing in Sonar that you can share? 

    (apart from the rock side, I truly enjoy listening to violins, cello's, piano, and classical guitar....)
