There is definitely something to be said for an evening of culture and entertainment. A few weeks ago I went with Phill to St Botolph’s Church in Colchester to listen to, amongst other things, Gershwin’s Rhapsody in Blue. Phill wrote a summary of the concert on his blog, so I won’t bore you with details, but we both really enjoyed the evening. To follow that, Phill and Phil took Ellie and I to Ipswich last night to hear the Wolsey Orchestra playing music by various Russian composers.
The concert was at the Corn Exchange, which I hadn’t been to before, and we were sat up in the balcony, but the acoustics were very good and we heard everything very well. The orchestra looked and sounded very professional indeed, and the conductor too was very energetic and fun to watch.
