A quiz question in Radio Times asks if Francis Poulenc was a) a cyclist, b) a scientist, or c) a composer. I rather like the idea of him flashing past in the Tour de France. 🚴♀️🎶

Having observed Rossini in rehearsal, the caustic Donizetti remarked that he sometimes seemed more interested in gossiping with prima donnas than conducting. Sounds reasonable. 😏🎶
Sorry to hear of the passing of Dickie Bird. I know very little about cricket, but in his passion for the game and his advocacy of sportsmanship and fun he seemed an admirable character. 👏🏏
Quick book recommendation: I am greatly enjoying 'Mozart's Women' by Jane Glover. The same authoritative but approachable voice I remember presenting the Proms when I was young. No celebrities telling her Beethoven was "fantastic" either. 👍
Souvenirs of a sunny September walk. I can never resist picking them up, but who polishes them so beautifully is a mystery...
Tomatoes, apples, onions, green pepper, raisins and brown sugar in the preserving pan ready to go. Just add cider vinegar, simmer for an hour, and leave in the jars to mature for a month. Enjoy all winter. 😋
Lots of comings and goings at the bird table today.
This reminds me of one of my favourite sentences in the English language. Andre Previn describes how as a young man he beat his teacher Schoenberg at table tennis, and this is the sentence: "It was a dumb move and the composer of 'Gurrelieder' was not pleased."

Suffolk's living canvas this afternoon.
Household vignette - apples coming in, magazines going out.
I watched this tiny insect on a flower gathering pollen and carefully storing it about its person. Wondrous nature is, to borrow a phrase from Ravel, complex but not complicated.
Sad to see Sting sued by his ex-Police bandmates but it's a peril of a form like pop music where no written score exists. The artifact is the recording, so who made up what, which improvised twiddle became famous, and when did it become part of 'the song'? 🤔🎼
Wonderful to see one of the great wildlife artists of the next generation already getting recognition.

This promises to be an essential purchase for anyone interested in the history of opera. Great cover as well -that is (I am almost certain) Callas leaving the ROH after her final London appearance, and my grandmother is somewhere in that crowd...

Gathering apples again, and I think I'd also be getting my oil paints out of my talents lay in that direction...
'Delicious autumn! My very soul is wedded to it, and if I were a bird I would fly about the earth seeking successive autumns.' George Eliot. I'm not sure I would go (literally) quite that far, but I know exactly what she means. ☺️🍃
