Conclave 2005 Photos - The Bow-in

The bow-in is the first big event of Conclave. It's a great ice-breaker, and it's always an emotional moment hearing all those instruments playing at once. There's always a great reception afterwards, too!

200 plus viols playing at once - an amazing sound. Chloe Dalby and the Shuldiners preparing for the reception.
