Yes, I meant St. John's, Smith Square.

Are there other Bluecoat Concerts, then?

With Jonathan home for half term, I have had the chance to read through the programme. By all accounts, it was an inspiring, if rather long, evening.

By the way, if any of you bought a programme, you will have bought it from my son. I gather, from other sources, that he played a fairly major, if unacknowledged role, during the evening: selling programmes, shifting grand pianos, etc., etc.

He does seem to do a lot of this sort of thing. He says that now he is not up to the musical standard required, he can still enjoy these musical occasions. He does, however, seem to spend an inordinate amount of time lighting the theatre for public as well as school productions. Although his name never appears on programmes, he says that he does these things because he enjoys them not because he wants recognition. So I suppose that is OK .....

Good for him. Lighting is a vastly underrated art.

He'll be a member of the black wearing, sun scared Stage Crew I guess...

I did buy a programme, so I must have said hello to Jonathan.

The evening was quite long (the concert finished at around 10.40, I think). Still, if this only happens once a year everyone needs to have a chance to show what they can do.
