_likimeya's meme addiction I thought I had better comply with her request. She told me to:

Write these things in your normal handwriting and post a picture!

1. your lj name
2. your two favorite bands
3. a person you admire right now
4. the person you admire most
5. five people to tag

I remain as always your obedient etc, etc. )

Jordi Savall? Oh, I adore him. Only last year I had the pleasure to see him perform. *sighs and gets starry eyed* It was so very interesting to note how he played his instrument.
You surely have seen Tous les matins du monde?

Btw, it is usually useless to tag me, as I do not do memes. :D

Ooh which programme did you see him perform? We saw Hesperion XXI performing a programme of Latin American baroque works last year. Sadly though we were seated in the aisle of the church and the acoustics were terrible :( He did a whole series at the Edinburgh International Festival a few years ago; we saw his production of L'Orfeo, a mixed Hesperion XXI programme and a solo recital which was one of the most beautiful things I have ever heard. (And yes Touts les matins du monde is one of my favourite films.)

That's why I tend not to tag specific people :)

I saw and heard Le Concert des Nations,Jordi Savall, Viola da Gamba with Marin Marais: La Viole du Roi Soleil at the Stiftskirche Steterburg (click on photo which opens a new menue. Click on "weiter" for more photos)

The music also included several Lully and Saint-Colombe

I had a seat to one of the sides so I was able to get up now and then without disturbing anyone, and lean on a wall near a window. Thus I had a gorgeous view and when they finished and walked out, they walked past me at arms length. Oh, how I wish for another concert!

Sounds wonderful! Saval played several pieces by Lully, Marais and Saint-Colombe during the solo recital we went to and they were breathtaking. He also played A Souldier's Resolution by Hume which is one of my favorite viol pieces. Partner was brave enough to have a chat with him after the concert. I was way too shy and star struck to say anything coherent :}

Btw, not Saval, but have you heard Paolo Pandolfo and Thomas Boysen's Monsieur de Saint Colombe: Pieces de viole on Glossa? It's beautiful.

Nice composition! :D

On tagging: I actually like being tagged, because I love doing (good) memes, but I'd never just copy one from somebody when I'm not tagged because I'd feel awkward doing silly stuff like that for no compelling reason. From time to time I come across a funny meme, and it says: "Whoever wants to do it, do it!", and I think, "damn, couldn't you just have tagged me and given me an excuse to do this??" I figure I'm not the only one who feels that way, that's why I always tag people. Those who absolutely don't want to do it will ignore it anyway. :)

Very nice writing - all swoopy and italic. :D

And paperweights are wonderful. Long live Playmobil!

Why thank you! My writing has barely changed since I was in school and that wasn't yesterday!

Long live Playmobil!
Playmobil FTW! Daughter got a whole new set of pirates for her birthday. I predict a full scale engagement with my "Victorian Schooner" before too long ;)

very nice composition - enjoyed this - and its a good meme - but for obvious reasons not for me - so have succumbed to saying yes to Likimeyas other one to make up for being party- pooper here .

Heres the Indy though - pretty high in the admiration stakes just now !

Ooh is that the alphabet music one? I'd forgotten about that one!

Which is exactly where she should be! Do you like my little Indy btw? I know she only has one mast but I did my best :}
