let my thoughts fly on wings

Thursday, August 04, 2011

The other day a lady from the Marsden Club, a day facility for dementia patients, invited me to come and play violin for them. I went along for the first time this morning and they were a great crowd: when I stood up and introduced myself, one old bloke struck up 'Glory, glory Hallelujah', so I joined in on the fiddle. This he enjoyed so much that he continued singing it with great gusto long after I'd finished and moved on to other songs. There was much exasperated shushing at this, but everyone sang along enthusiastically and the requests kept on coming: the slaves' chorus from Nabucco from the elderly Italian gentleman came a little out of left field, and I didn't even know I knew how to play 'Onward Christian Soldiers', but I got by. And am looking forward to going back next week.
