BOOKINGS are being taken to play on a gigantic musical instrument in Worcester this weekend.

Vale people are being invited to pre-book a free place to play on a gamelan, which will be appearing at the County Hall as part of Skills on Show 2001.

The Gamelan, which has Asian origins, incorporates dozens of percussion and wind instruments and allows a number of people to play at once. To book a place call 01905 766337.
