I don't understand.

Hehe sorry I have not explained myself too well. I am going to be sitting in the orchestra for the first piece, which lasts about 8 minutes, and then at the end of that piece, I will go and stand at the front and (try to) play the concerto. All in all, I think there will be about 15 minutes of waiting before I play the concerto as the headmaster makes his customary speech...

I hope this makes things a bit clearer!

Chris.
