We meet at a friendly community centre in Ludworth, which is only 7.5 miles away from Durham. This is the newest Cobweb group and it is a little different from the others as it is focused on making music that is more appropriate for less experienced players. Cobwebbers who turn up with a second instrument are very useful as they are able to give support and share their advice. We play a range of music although still aspire to explore pieces from across the orchestral repertoire, sometimes using arrangements that are less demanding.

Thanks to everyone who attended a performance by The Elvaston Ensemble at St Mary’s Church in Shincliffe on 8 June to help with fundraising for Ludworth Cobwebs, and the ‘If U Care Share Foundation’. They will be returning on Friday 14 December, so please come! The Elvaston Ensemble are all Cobwebbers: Chrissie (flute), Anita (oboe), Tracy (clarinet), Rye (bassoon) and Clare (horn). This time they’ll be performing some Christmas music so you may even get the chance to sing along!
A huge thank you
Thanks to everyone who came to our very last session of the summer term on 10 July to help us continue with our fundraising for Ludworth. Music included Tchaikovsky’s ‘Russian Dance’, Bizet’s ‘Toreador Song’, Mozart’s ‘Ave verum corpus’, ‘Yesterday’ by The Beatles, and the beautiful ‘Shuna’ by Lizelle Kirby, who used to conduct Morpeth Cobwebs. The audience joined in ‘The Toy Symphony’ and took away their instruments away to practise. Please come back next term!
