I'm just writing to let you know that I am currently directing Music For
Everyone's adult classical guitar ensemble 'Tarantella'. The group is

skills on a week to week basis, and aside from that it's great fun!

Looking for Lute players

2009-09-09T07:55:02Z

SCUNA (the ANU Choral Society) is performing a concert of 16th century
madrigals called Sweet Love Doth Now Invite. Composers include Byrd,
Dowland, Gibbons, Tallis and many more. We are performing on the 26th
September at St Andrews Church. We thought it would be great to include
some lute players in our concert.
