I have been lucky enough to meet Chris and Cecile in Guernsey at their annual visits to Guernsey. This is a real treat for our students and local players and teachers – a room full of instruments to try! Exhausting for poor C & C though, a massive load up, long drive, sometimes ghastly boat journey and then all hands on deck to set up a local hotel as their weekend showroom. Many of my pupils have enjoyed choosing their first instruments from them and the parents enjoy the part-ex scheme when they need a bigger instrument or an upgrade. Two years ago my son chose a gorgeous old German cello and this year it was my turn to part exchange my old French cello for this beautiful old English instrument. I absolutely love it!
