| The back bacon from Appleyards is amazing, almost a foot long and with lots of crispy rind. |
There was a lunchtime concert given by the Shropshire Wind Ensemble in St. Chad's church today.
Beethoven's Rondino in E flat minor was played by the octet of two each oboes, clarinets, horns and bassoons. They were joined by a contra bassoon for Krommer's Partita in F major. The playing was good and the concert was well attended. The contra-bassoon is a massive instrument that is not used a great deal. It plays very low notes and was quite effective.
