Guitar Circle Sundays s. 2 #10, 11-13-11

In attendance: Victor, Rick, Chris (scribe), Brad, Dev

Some minor technical difficulties as we set up tonight, with coffee machines and (sound) mixers. We prehearse Bicycling to Afghanistan at Victor's request and also run through the nascent Voices of Ancient Children.

We perform around 7:40. The (approximate) set list:

circulation I/improv I
Batrachomyomachy
circulation II
Eye of the Needle
circulation III/improv II
Thrak
Rick and Chris
Voices of Ancient Children
Growing Circle
Q & A (how much do you practice during the week?)
Calliope
circulation IV/improv III
Haydn's canon
Where's the Nurse
imrpov IV
Austurias

For rehearsal, we're joined by a new player, Scott. Victor asks Scott if he would like to join the performance team and gives him the run-down of what he will need to be prepared for it; this dovetails into a demonstration of navigating the entire neck of the guitar in C Major using tetrachords. Victor then takes Scott downstairs for some one-on-one work while the remainder work on Blockhead and Love is Green.

We start wrapping up promptly around 10:00.
