Music Times

Soo, for those of you who don't know (um, like me, up until recently!), yesterday was Benjamin Britten's 100th birthday. Yay for him! To mark the occasion, there were various concerts going on around the world (probably)- at least, there was one in Bristol, and that's where I was!
The concert was really good, and I really enjoyed the evening :) We were in the front row, so got to see the various techniques used by the violinists, which was really nice :)
Of course, as I went with the Music Department, the evening would not have been complete without some weird and wonderful antics; these included being sat between BB and another person from AS music, who were both quite enthusiastically in love with the conductor  (bit of script- Music Teacher: Why have you moved? Me: They were discussing his bum. Music Teacher: Ah...), and some decisions as to who in the orchestra fancied who. All in a normal evening with Music! :)
