Thank you

On behalf of the Taffanel Wind Ensemble, I would like to thank all of you who came to our performance at Spadina House on Sunday. It was a lovely day. The weather cooperated, it did not rain although the clouds did threaten at one point.
Will let you know when we have our next public performance.
Bill and I play in Otteto Prosciutto and we will be playing at the Don Mills Centre, August 13th. See you there if you have time. You can shop and listen to us.
In the meantime, enjoy the many performances in the city.

Spadina House This Sunday

After our cold spring, if you could call it spring, we finally have summer.
We invite you to come to our performance at Spadina House on Sunday. Enjoy summer. We will be playing at 1:30 in the orchard at Spadina House which is beside Casa Loma.
Spadina House has been refurbished and well worth the visit. The gardens are lovely as well.
Hope to see you there.

Spadina House 2011

Hopefully by the time we come to Spadina House the weather will have warmed up and the flowers will be blooming. We will be at Spadina House on Sunday June 12, 1:30 p.m. as part of Music in the Orchard. We have had the pleasure of performing in this lovely setting for many years and hope to continue for many more. We will entertain with music from Haydn to Send in the Clowns.
Come enjoy the music and the gardens which should be magnificent.

McMichael Concert, May 1

This is the annual concert at the McMichael Gallery coming up on Sunday May 1. It is always special to play at the gallery. After doing this for over 10 years, it seems like old hat except there are new players. Stephanie, a wonderful flute player is the newest addition to the group. Bill, the clarinet player is becoming an old pro at this and of course me.
Come and enjoy the art and see us at the gallery in Kleinburg.

Colborne Lodge

We had a lovely time at Colborne Lodge. Michael came along to go on the tour. This was a first for him. He enjoyed the tour and Zach and I relaxed until it was our time to play. We played Mozart, Beethoven, solos and Hohavness. It was well received. Michael is looking forward to returning in the fall for a walk around in the dark. Should be fun.
Zach and I are now planning for next performances. Plenty to think about.

Colborne Lodge

This Sunday, the Taffanel Wind Ensemble will be part of the Spring Equinox celebration at Colborne Lodge, 7 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. . This is an annual event and the ensemble is pleased to be part of it. There will be a tour of the house and garden, time change makes the outdoor part possible. Music which is us and food which is always welcome.
Book your tickets.

March

We are getting ready for a busy season. Next weekend, the duo of flute and bassoon will play at Colborne Lodge for the Spring Equinox. The public is welcome to this concert and display of the house which is fascinating. Colborne's wife was ill the later years of her life and she had separate quarters in the house.
It is time to plan for the May concert at the McMichael Gallery. This is our longest concert of the year.
We look forward to seeing you.
Please say hello.
