Word setting

4 Jul 2009 Jay 1 Comment

I spent a good (as in a lot and also as in enjoyable) part of yesterday setting a list of proper nouns to music in the grand tradition of Tom Lehrer

and Yakko from Animaniacs.

I love these people — my dear friends and band mates in Off The Wall ☺️

I found this lovely surprise in the glovebox when I picked up the GoCar I'd booked for this busy Christmas period 🎁☺️🍫🚗 @gocar_ireland

Spent a delightful evening a few days ago rummaging through the treasure cave that is Casa Beethoven. Found this LP of the marvellous pianist Clara Haskil playing Mozart piano concertos.

Taking some time among the trees today

Got a lovely vinyl delivery this morning...Madison Cunningham's new record and her cracker debut. Check out that cool patterned LP...!

Out with mum to see a film about a tree 😊

So great to have my traveling companion for the epic journey to Kerry and back for last night's Off The Wall wedding 😊

Just played an outdoor wedding ceremony under a magnificent beech tree. The processional was 'Turning Page' by Sleeping At Last, which I'd never heard before but is just lovely. Now for some food and then, later, some Off The Wall action.

"Anne Hathaway"-ing our cupcakes

Fantastic production of Translations by Brian Friel. A play that really impacted me as a young undergraduate in Edinburgh leaving behind Northern Ireland and trying to make sense of who I was.

Working on some Beethoven (Op.14, No.1 from the beautiful century-old edition that I had rebound last summer) and Robert Schumann's 2nd sonata. #WBMP #piano

Awaiting Mr Wainwright...

Got a piano tuning kit with a view to learning how to do minor tweaks and fixes in between the professional visits.

The Central Hotel

Pause before driving home.

Madison Cunningham played a stunning solo set tonight. Her ability on the guitar is truly remarkable and always in service to the songs. And what songs — groovy, catchy, poignant (one dedicated to her grandmother who passed away during COVID was particularly beautiful).
