Yesterday Natasha played with Tewkesbury Camerata at Tewkesbury Methodist Centre. The pieces played were Don Giovanni by Mozart, the Schumann Cello Concerto with soloist Sally Alexander and Beethoven's Symphony number 7.

It was an amazing concert, even more so as they only started rehearsals at 10am on the morning of the concert.

Look out for the next Tewkesbury Camerata concert in September!
