How can you take the classic Christmas Carol, Silent Night, and make it better? By playing it on 8 cellos, of course.
I thoroughly dislike this part of the school year. The wind down to the Summer break. I’m notorious too for not really using my Summer break well and failing to rest. I don’t cope well with loose time – I don’t ever really know what to do. Anyway, this coming week sees so many different […]
