Here's a book I have been urged to buy by a poster on another forum (there'll be no advertising of that other forum here, thank you) : Alban Berg and His World. I'm afraid the poster didn't give any publisher details, but one can get those via internet search. I might give it a go, once I have finished reading Mahler and His World.

Originally posted by Peter View PostNo but I'm gradually turning my garden into a forest with more plants than places to put them! Having said that, you're right the shed is full of all sorts of implements that Cromwell would have found handy!

Originally posted by Preston View PostI too, quite like gardening. Soon we will be planting the spring/summer vegetable garden and an herb garden. I am not too experienced in gardening, though hope to learn more.
That and I am reading nothing worth noting, .
Gardening is fun for me, too, (most of the time and especially when it starts producing) but it is a lot of hard work.

Originally posted by Philip View PostAh, the trials and tribulations of an English country Gentleman ... Luckily, I don't have a garden, but I do have a nice, long and wide 3rd-floor balcony that looks out onto the cathedral (which functions as my alarm clock, I'll have you know). I do hope I'm not giving away too much personal information, one never knows, there are so many "internet crazies" (you know, those with two personalities, Jeckyl and Hyde types) who may try and track me down and chainsaw me to pieces.
Back on topic, I've dug out Satie for tonight as we were talking about him earlier - I'm feeling in better humour already.'Man know thyself'

We live in quite a rural area and it is wonderful to wake up to a beautiful sunny morning with the birds all singing.
Occassionally we get pigeons flying into the window with a thud and knocking themselves silly for a few moments. I often wonder if there are different levels of 'bird brians' so to speak, as some seem more alert than others.

We have had glorious sunshine and blue sky all day long.
I also felt good about my violin lesson today, much better than last week
I did some sight reading excercises, scales and actually played a couple of pieces through. About time too! I think it all has to do with how confident one feels.
Peter, how do I get the qoute facility to work ?Last edited by Megan; 04-08-2011, 04:45 PM.‘Roses do not bloom hurriedly; for beauty, like any masterpiece, takes time to blossom.’
