BUO in England

Buo is an orchestra with about 50 members and every second year they make a trip somewhere. Where the destination is depends on where the musicfestivals are. The trips are always to some kind of musicfestival and sometimes even enter a contests.
The summer 2005 BUO went to Scarborough in England and enterd a contest and actually came in the second place.

I joined BUO the year of 2000 but had to quit it 2008. It was hard to keep it up with the distance of half of sweden.

On the boat to England we got some weird company...

When we got to Scarborough BUO was devided into two grops that was staiyng in twodifferent hotells.

Becouse BUO selebrated 40 year we gave our present conductor a gift to remember this year.

These kind of trips is something I really miss from the time I was playing in BUO. It was alot of fun and everyone in BUO tookcare of everyone. Something I am never going to forget.
