Brussels is surprisingly bad for wheelchairs. Lots of cobbles and way too few dipped curbs in pavements. Lovely city though

GBSR Duo were amazing. I've never seen musicians ac tight as that. Extraordinary timing and balance. And Bryn Harrison's long piece felt like 30 minutes, not 75

Looking forward to the GBSR Duo tonight at the Crucible

I am going to convert my CDs to streaming, for reasons of access and storage. What streaming service that is not called Spotify or Amazon do you use? (I already use bandcamp)

Szymanowski - a bit dull Strauss - not dull enough But Olivier Messaien and Lilies Boulanger - 👍

Am off to the Proms tomorrow night. Am looking forward. First time I’ve got a seat (well, wheelchair space) instead of standing in the arena

It was my birthday yesterday. I feel old. Lots of lovely treats. Though my favourite was takeaway curry. Yum. Also delighted to get the book on Satie by carolinefrmus.bsky.social

I came home from hospital 4 years ago today, after a 17-month stay. New developments all the time including, this year, lots of walking outside. And recently have been learning to walk without brakes on my walking frame. Noone quite knows where it'll go from here

Fortunately I have considerable training in waiting, as my current life involves a lot of waiting around while other people take me places or do things to me youtu.be/ldLRSxj11DE?...

I absolutely love Saturday mornings: bath, toast and marmalade, strong coffee, paper. And the feeling of not being hurried

Only heard about Jonathan Powell's passing yesterday. Very sad news. A really great pianist with a fascinating repertoire

I go to Huddersfield tomorrow for the opening concert of the festival. Which is a bit weird as it’s the first time I’ve been back for a couple years. Promises to be a great programme with new works by Rytis Mazulis and Bryn Harrison played by the Explore Ensemble
