   Dear Capitol Bells,

   I had the pleasure of hearing you play at Christmas and was very impressed by your virtuosic performance.

   Dear Capitol Bells,

   I had the pleasure of hearing you play at Christmas and was very impressed by your virtuosic performance.

   I am a London based composer and visiting professor of composition at FSU for 2 semesters, I am currently organising an event at the Fine Arts Museum on Saturday 13th April and wonder if I could persuade you to be involved?

   The event is a John Cage 'Musicircus'. This is a performance involving multiple, different ensembles and performers scattered through the 2 floors of the museum, performing their own repertoire simultaneously, but not continuously over a 2 hour period. The audience move freely between the performers, enjoying different soundscapes. There's a bit more to it than that, but that's the essence of it.

   I would love to include your ensemble in this event and feel you would add a really interesting and captivating dimension to it.

   The rehearsal is on the day (13th April) at 4pm and the performance is 6pm - 8pm. Unfortunately there is no fee for this as this is a communal performance and free to the audience, this democratic approach was dictated in John Cage's score.

   I very much hope your ensemble or some members of it would like to be involved in some way, please could you get back to me as soon as possible.

   I look forward to hearing from you

   Best wishes

   Stephen Montague
