Well, the Homespun concert's come and gone. Overall, it went quite well. There were a few mishaps, but the audience was forgiving.
We played 12 pieces (roughly... I forget exactly what all there was), including some flute choir, brass choir, clarinet choir, and string orchestra pieces in addition to several full orchestra pieces. No yell band for this concert, so it was all us. We did play one of my pieces - Poet and Penguin - although I'm beginning to realize how inexperienced I was when I wrote it.
The crafts presentation was nice, if a little small. Mom brought some of Amy's dresses that she'd made, and Bobbette brought some needlepoint and some of her poetry and photography. Liana brought some nice soaps that she'd made, and some other folks brought other things as well.

what is this "homespun"? And Poet and Penguin?
Sorry, I probably should've explained more...
"Homespun" is the concert we most recently did in Brighton where we featured music composed, arranged or transcribed by local composers. We also featured an arts and crafts section for local artisans.
"Poet and Penguin Overture" is the title of one of the pieces I've written, and we played it at the concert.
i was sad i didn't get there sooner and check out the knitting stuff that was going on.
Yeah, there was some neat stuff there...
