@schubert Yes Len she is a really good fiddler now since her days as a new generation artist at the Beeb. I think I told you before that she was educated in the same town I live in and I used to see her and her mum shopping on a Saturday morning in the High Street. A couple of years ago James McMillan (the composer) opened a music festival in Cumnock his birth place about 10 miles from me and Nichola was there and I heard her play the Bach Chaconne and very impressive it was. It sure was great being about ten feet from a very beautiful Strad. re. Annie Fisher's Beethoven ,very exciting on a par with Richter, just a pity about recording quality which could be variable. |
God vacations in the Adirondacks , his best creation ! https://youtu.be/qa9IBbNMooU Jim , The Highlands would be like this if they had not been raped . State of New York ruled the Adirondacks would be Forever Wild , over a century ago . A 6 million acre park . https://youtu.be/YeY4h0lGGeU I spend much of my youth about 50 miles North in the Park , just a wild and about 50 miles from Montreal as the crow flies. Many Canadians hike here or did before the virus . Lake George is 40 miles long and 600 feet deep. I once caught a 30 lb Pike . A favorite place of rich Swiss who say it's the most beautiful lake in the world . https://youtu.be/C3TAXkd39rw |
