Thursday
21st August 2008- Dear Arlette Thank you very much for the last two
weeks. The course was magical and everyone
was very friendly. I made lots of new friends, loved the countryside and went
on refreshing walks. It was very lovely to meet foreign
friends and share a dorm with them. I've never been to Shrewsbury before
and it was very beautiful. The student concert was the longest
concert in my life!! It was very fun teaching Adash even
for a short amount of time. He played very well! My mum still misses playing and teaching
him. I would love to help little children
next time~~ There was always something to do
other than practice, which I loved. I also liked the swimming pool very
much and tennis and football! My mum enjoyed it very much as
well. We still talk about it all the
time! I miss the music course especially
friends but we have email. Please
send the cards to the teachers!~~ Thank you very much, Love Julia Hwang 12 years old violin (Bristol) Korean Masterclasses Richard Crabtree and Alexander

24 August 2008 Dear
Arlette On
behalf of my children, Manuel and Maria Abecasis, that participate for the 2nd time, I would like to express
our deep-felt thankfulness to you and Alan for organising such a wonderful
course that gives them the opportunity to benefit from the contact of great
teachers/artists as well as from the very challenging and warm atmosphere you
create there. To
meet so many young (and not so young) people from all over the world
that share a common passion-music-is really a magic idea that can help build
their characters so that they can become better individuals. Specially
for my son Manuel this has become a most expected moment of the year and
landmark for his life and love for music has he had the great chance of have
met the wonderful teacher and amazing violinist Alexander Trostiansky
that was generous and patient enough to teach him for the 2nd year in a row. I
would like to extend our thanks to all the other great teachers present in
the course that contributed to make it so great and appreciated. Also
for parents it was again a great joy to witness the happiness of our children
and the progress they made both in music and English but also
regarding self-esteem, autonomy and independence. You
can count with us for next year. Clara

behalf of Manuel (violin, violin master class, strings orchestra, orchestra,
chamber music and piano) and Maria (violin, cello, strings orchestra,
orchestra and chamber music) from Portugal |

2008 Chère Arlette, Le passage de Frensham à Moreton Hall a montré que,
plus que le lieu (le nouveau collège est par ailleurs magnifique, à la lisière
du mystérieux Pays de Galles), ce sont les hommes et les femmes que vous avez
choisis qui font le miracle de ce stage qui permet à chacun, du débutant au
musicien confirmé, d'y trouver son bonheur tout en améliorant sa pratique des
langues. L'intensité de ces 2 semaines est telle que l'on s'en
trouve un peu dépossédé une fois replongé dans le quotidien de l'existence. Heureusement se profile déjà l'espoir du prochain été
qui sera, j'en suis sûr, aussi studieux, aussi convivial, aussi enthousiasmant
pour nous tous. |

Tuesday,
02 September 2008 Dear
Arlette, Thank
you very much for the follow up of the course and the pictures. We
only got back home 2 days ago and are still enjoying talking about the
wonderful time we had and the wonderful people we met. We
spent all the way back home in the car (2300 km!) singing together Ave
Verum, All things bright and Beautiful, etc. (William would
probably have fainted if he had heard us!). We definitely want to come back
next year, so please, put the four of us on your list (we will wire the
reservation tomorrow). We
can really tell our children have discovered how to enjoy music in the Peter
Pan course; their teachers (Nadine and Gilad) were fabulous!
When
we decided to enrol the children for the course this year we were not sure
about taking classes ourselves. Thank
you for inviting us to do so, we discovered you are never too old to learn
and to overcome your fears. We
would like to thank Sarah (Colman) and Alex (‘Forsyth) for their excellent
classes, their enormous patience and for being such wonderful peoples. A
special thank for our English teacher Alan, who is not only the perfect
English teacher but also an inspiring person to see as a model: his temperate
manner and warm personality did not go unnoticed and were very much
appreciated by everyone. Maybe
you were unaware, but many of us saw you holding hands and embracing each
other during the final concert. Also
our expression of gratitude for Ashley (and his lovely wife Aneta), who, in
all circumstances, no matter how exhausted, worried or upset, always kept a
smile and friendly attitude.
And,
of course, many many thanks to you for being the heart of this life enhancing
project. No
cultural clashes, misunderstandings, broken mattress springs, bad pianos,
rainy weather or hard to digest liver with gravy can spoil this wonderful
experience!
Take
a well-deserved rest. We will keep in touch, Rosa

2008 Dear Arlette, Alan,
Alex, William … Eneko arrived at home
after his second summer at LMFL, delighted and inspired. He is dying for
returning next summer. Thank you very much for
your help at picking him up from Liverpool. Thanks to Alex Forsyth
and William Godfree for the stimulus and motivation they transmitted to Eneko
(a brief feedback from them would be very much appreciated). Thanks also for
the English professors, Eneko improved it significantly. This year we missed the
opportunity of joining you at the end course auditions. Last year we enjoyed
that very much, the atmosphere, the enthusiasm and joy of the young
performers, … We hope to see you again
next year. Thanks again, Jorge and Virginia Unda for Eneko pre-course and course saxophone
and EFL |
