Gumboot month

A quintet of Gumboots performances this month:

• The wonderful Art of Elan in San Diego on 30th Nov
  
• My dear friends at ACJW perform in Avilés, Spain on the 20th. I'm being whisked out there courtesy of the amazing-looking new Niemeyer Center to give a pre-concert talk.
  
• Ikarus Chamber Players give two performances in New York
  
• The Third Millenium Ensemble perform in Rockville, MD
  
• The talented young clarinettist Alex Morris performs with his group at the Australian National Academy of Music
  

I'm also really happy that my old friend and collegue Matthew Hunt has confirmed he will be performing Gumboots with Ensemble 360 at Sheffield's Crucible next April. Matt played on my first two mini-operas for Tete a Tete and I can still hear some of the lines he played floating around in my head. I popped along to hear Matt play the Mozart Quintet with the excellent Sacconi Quartet last night at St John's Smith Square and was left speechless all over again by the exquisite beauty of his tone, his sensitivity of phrasing and the wonderful conversational interaction with the quartet. As I said to him, it was like watching him float gentle delicate frisbees across the ensemble.
