Life is better with SAFETY VAMPS!
It’s not often that I play in a pit band, so I’m enjoying the unique quirks of this format - particularly the instruction ‘safety vamp’.
Anything could happen, so you hold or repeat your notes (or rests!), hang there, and wait for the cue…!
And no that’s definitely not my music stand with the saxophone and the six nations on TV!
