Christmas Quiz!

December 2024

The first half of the season ended in cracking style with a quiz ably put together by Ruth Barlow. Music you won’t be surprised to learn, formed the basis of the questions which taxed the team’s knowledge. We had to guess both composer and piece with some questions on what linked the different compositions. There was a round based on photos of musicians. A challenging round was guessing the end of compositions. It was very much enjoyed and were very grateful for the work and cunning that Ruth had put into compiling the questions.

It brings to an end the first half of our season which has been a great success with a varied and interesting programme. We start again in the New Year on 27 January with an interesting first session enabling us to polish up our knowledge of Polish composers.
