Purchase your scores |
| |
Hello I like your arrangements and would like to purchase some
scores from your latest CD. We Play Bb Flutes and I am looking
for trio's but if they are written for 4 flutes, that will be fine.
We have a concert in October and I would like to introduce some new
tunes to the rest of the Corps before then. Please let me know if
I can urchase them from you.
Many Thanks
Stuart Boyd

Hi there, I am a director of music for a melody flute band in
N Ireland. We use Bb 5 key flutes playing 3 parts and 1 Piccolo.
I have listened to your music with great interest and would ultimately
like to introduce some of this into our current music vocabulary.
Although mainly a marching band we play a lot of Sousa marches
but I would really like to play some of your finer stuff for our
indoor concerts and competitions. If you could respond to me I
would be obliged.
Regards,
Nigel. |

Dear MCV,
We just finished watching your performance in the Edinburgh Military
Tattoo, and we loved it! What a treat to see such a talented group
representing America at this year's tattoo. We wish we could have
been there in person.
This summer we will be visiting Boston to learn more about the founding
of America and are thrilled to see that you will be performing at
Harborfest. We can't wait to see you there.

Sadly, I missed the Tattoo this year and did not see your performance
live. However, I recorded it from T.V. and have purchased the sound
track of the show. I would like to say a sincere thank you and
well done for your performance. I'm actually listening on headphones
as I type!
Kindest regards to you all.

a great show.
Message to Mike Godin - sorry we lost touch in recent years. Please

Just a short note to convey to you just how much my wife and
I enjoyed the fabulous entertainment put forward by your company
which we watched on television this week here in Manchester, England.
What a fine body of excellent musicians and performers who's drill,smartness
of dress and marching prowess does the American Nation proud! What
did stand out was, that they seemed to be enjoying themselves also.
I have taped the performance from the Edinburgh Military Tattoo and
already, I have copied it for friends who missed it. I expect I will
wear out my copy in no time.
We have been fortunate enough to have visited the States a number
of times over the years including Boston where one might expect to
see this type of reenactment,(I hope that is an acceptable phrase),but
not been lucky enough to see it.
We do hope we will witness The Middlesex County Volunteers another
time but until then, a thousand thanks for one of the most enjoyable
evenings.
Continue to show the world that no one can do this better than the
Americans.
Kind regards,
Mary and John Cooper

Your organization looked great at the annual 4th of July celebration
in Boston. My regards to all especially those long time members that
date back to your partnership with the Massachusetts Army National
Guard. I suspect there are a few "Old-Timers" left!! Job
well done.

I just read the on-line edition of the newsletter. I am
so envious of MCV. I wish you all the luck and good fortune
in the world. Heck, if I lived in Massachusetts, I think
I'd move heaven and earth to learn to play fife well enough
to play with such a fine corps.

Your CD In America |

I am from Northern Ireland and recently got your cd, what
can i say other than excellent.
i have noticed that the style you play is somwhat different
to what i have heard before on other sound tracks from cds
and indeed sounds more like a flute rather than fife, is this
the case it sounds much better.
on Behalf of the Ulster Grenadiers Flute band may i wish MCV
all the best in the future and feel free to visit our site

Is MCV going to play at the 225th Anniversary of the Siege
of Yorktown, Oct. 19-22-06? I noticed that on the participants
schedule... there are going to be many fife and drum regiments
performing. Are you part of the Lexington Training Band?
Hope to see and hear MCV at Yorktown... as we missed you
at Colonial Williamsburg last Dec. Take a look at the Yorktown
site. Many Massachusetts regiments coming. The National Park
Service is going to let us all play on the Battle Fields! |
