I followed a friend of mine who wanted compagny to try some dance. Considering my helplessness at reproducing someone's dancing move, I was not really planning to join.
However I had a great surprise and it was well worth going since I have now joined an orchestra !
The trick is that the music the dance group dances to is from an live orchestra ! It is the same band and they work together on mostly jazz music.
And I have to say it works pretty well !
It's the best way to start the flute again as it is run by only student and completly relaxed !
They do play pretty fast and know most of the songs already but I am getting there !
Apparently it is quite common in sweden,
and so we will be meeting other orchestra/dance
group for playing and parties. It's great fun !
Congratulations on joining this orchestra!
ReplyDeleteI remember reading a "rapport d'échange" from Fabian Bircher who was also at KTH and part of the same (or a similar) orchestra.
I would immediately join it if I had the possibility :-)
How is life in Sweden? And do you enjoy the lectures?
Somehow I get the feeling I'm not learning nearly as much as I should...
