Toby brings Fatamorganna to the beach next Friday, nearer to the sea! 

they were naughty enough to be transposed into seagulls but, retaining their true form they reemerge at Godolphin

 2 Sunsets is one of the pieces to get a full airing this year and can be seen in both situations

 We hope you enjoy it ( as much as we enjoy working together) and congratulations again to Jessie on the left, next to Zoe and then Rory

Hope to see you at Mousehole or Godolphin
