Notes From Wrablers Rehearsal 24 March 2026 Dock of The Bay – Bass to provide additional 4 bar intro before we all start Iqude – we experimented with different intros but ran out of time, so we will develop more in all day rehearsal on Sunday.

Chair: Robin Attendees: LS, MS, WT, JB, KM, SE, RM Apologies: MM, JL, DD, DC Item Action 1 Warmed up with sound scapes, an old improvisation technique for getting focus and complicite. Mainly fun. 2 Marveljammy eh? – just as powerful and unpronounceable as ever 3 When will I see you again – Seb – a bit rusty but after a discordant start flowed like the old bird once again. [ Ed.
