The organist librarian

We sang Prayer of St Richard of Chichester. L. J. White and I played Meditation on Slane by Thiman and Dubois Toccata. To Death cafe and very interesting conversation. Lovely that Bobbie Darbyshire came.Tidied up the patio so we could eat out. Nothing on TV so catching up on Couples come dine with me. Mosaic. Alessandro Bianchi from Lugano played a completely unfamiliar programme at Cornhill. Langlais and Germani were the only composers I had heard of! Quite interesting.

Swam 20. To Beckenham parish church and gave out fliers and it was up at Beckenham Bookshop. David Phillips played A minor Bach, Mozart and Germani very well. Saw Nigel and Ken Baker. Studied Death in Venice score. After a quick bite to National Portrait Gallery for BP portrait award and free concert by ENO young singers. Excellent sopranos and baritone Ian Beadle with a very expressive face! Mozart, Britten and Bizet. Straight across to ENO for beautiful production of Death in Venice -sat next to a nice couple from Hanover. Home by 11.15 quite tired.
