Benedetti

Delightful Keralan lunch with Fr Xavier, Sr John Mary, Maud and Jennie in East Ham. Got to first part of preprom talk on Sibelius 2. Stupendous Shostakovich October and violin concerto 1 with Nichols Benedetti. She plays throughout. Love Sibelius 2. Roy Sutherland the director the Buddhist Jamyang centre let me down again so I led a lively discussion on Laudato Si. A very odd Prom first half did not excite and Berlioz OK.Home late due to wait for bus and train.Lots of flies. Thursday to mass and art - good work on leopard. To Balham library by car for scores. Saw 3 staff I appointed and Jeremy's daughter. Excellent recital at St John's by Geoffrey Morgan well played and presented. Met John Belcher and Christopher Herrick! Skipped John Williams prom. Loved the story about the O level student who in desperation wrote Bach wrote a lot of pieces for the Associated Board!
