Orgelbuchlein

Swim, we both went to Mass and remembered little Georgie who's funeral was at Acton. Liz went to see Henry swimming. I could not find parking. We all went to the pub lunch. Quiet time. Liz to council. To St Peter Eaton Square for live radio 3 BBC singers concert with Robert Quinney and William John Richard Whitehead at the end of Orgelbuchlein project. It is a great achievement but sadly I have only heard one new piece which I might wish to play. Enjott Schneider. I was no 11 in the queue but it was a very long wait to go in.

To National Gallery and saw pictures from Barber institute and the Turners and Constables then to National Portrait gallery with fine new picture of the Duchess of Cambridge. Walked through Soho which is fascinating to St Patrick's for William Whitehead's recital on the restored 1793 organ. Rome to Home. That organ really sings.Samuel wbbe (was organist of the church) Maurice Greene, Haydn, de Grigny, Pepusch - a fine programme. Home and then to West Norwood to pick up Liz. She has had her hair cut very short. The Apprentice.
