Stockholm philharmonic orchestra

Woke late so no swim. Washing done and cleaned lounge and changed bed. To tai chi - Tony back and 7 there! Balance not so good this week. To Sanderstead to discuss David's funeral with Rene, John and Jill. A joyful event so different music needed. To the church at Selsdon to try organ which is a one manual with pedals and in reasonable tune - not been tuned by Martin Cross since 2009! I last played there for Marcel's first Mass in 2001. To St Andrew's to find Ode to Joy copy and some Mozart. David loved Prokofiev, Rachmaninov, Stravinsky and Shostakovich none of which cna be played on the organ but I did find a Stravinsky Ave Maria! Sandwich and to RAH for Prom by Stockholm Philharmonic Sibelius 6, Grieg piano concerto and Nielsen 4 all with scores. Pianist played Liszt La Campanella as encore. She was excellent. Worried by riots including burning of Reeves corner and West Croydon station - why must ask why? Edwina Currie is right - this immoral behaviour is destroying their own prospects. Alex Wheatle has a good article in the Standard.
