"During Lockdown, our ensembles have been meeting online every week, to chat and have play alongs. We were inspired to produce this together, using the Ten Pieces parts for Habanera. This is our transition orchestra and wind band, and one of our team put this in to the video so that we could use it for our Virtually Brilliant online Music Festival - Thank you for the Music!"
