Please do be punctual to rehearsals.

Please do write markings in if needed.

Please do come prepared having done at least some work on your part relevant to the rehearsal.

Be inventive and thoughtful with your practise. Slow practise yields huge benefits, as does trying to play difficult passages in a variety of ways. Alex and I are always happy to suggest ideas for passages you might be finding tricky.

Please acquaint yourselves with recordings of the repertoire.
