I’m ‘borderline’ – should I come to the Introductory or Intermediate workshop?
Much depends on your personality and previous experience. If in doubt, most players opt to come to the Introductory workshop first, as this is a good confidence-builder. Remember that you can gain as much – or more – from being one of the best of a lesser group than playing the easier parts with the Intermediates. The woodwind band caters for a mixture of standards, so is a good way to discover how well you will manage alongside people who already participate in the Intermediate group. We are happy for ‘borderline’ players to attend both the Introductory and Intermediate workshop. However, sight-reading all day makes huge demands on a player’s concentration so two workshops (or one workshop plus band) are usually more than plenty!
