New season notes

A few notes for the new spring season:
 
Since its conception last autumn Durham Amateur Pianists has grown slowly with 5 successful meetings to date and our March event yet to come. We have also been featured on the excellent Music in Durham website, which is a fantastic resource for music events in and around the city.
 
Some of our members are also regulars at Gateshead Piano Workshop which is held monthly at Gateshead Central Library. Teacher Venera Bojkova offers this friendly masterclass-style event which is an excellent showcase and I always learn something!
