June 4th - 7th, 2008 - Wounding Song - Opera with Guitar!

4. Meet the band

Once again, from the guitar chair - note to orchestra managers and conductors - this is a good place for the guitar - dead centre!

Keyboards: Here we see John from the well-tempered section.
  • John McKenna - String pads
  • David Vance - Harp parts


Slightly left of my centre - Strings, the songbirds of the orchestra.
  • Ilir Merxushe - Cello
  • Sarah Moire - Violin
  • Kate Delahunty - Viola




In front of me, controlling all of this, and coordinating us with 22 people singing, dancing and acting - Conductor and Musical Director: Houston Dunleavy


To my Right - Winds:
  • Flute: Suzanne Cowan
  • Oboe: David Papp
  • Clarinet: Brian Martin
Now, these guys can play so fast that this was the best image I could get - Brian Martin playing a passage in augmented 4ths, prestissimo!



And of course to my far right, Ricky Arraiza on Percussion:
  • Tubular Bells
  • Gong
  • Tympani
  • Wind Chimes
  • Tam Tam
And, in the middle of all this, yours truly!
