We went to a concert last night, Schubert’s quintet in C Major, in a church some three miles down the road. The players were young musicians from Switzerland, the US, Spain & the UK. I’m no expert, but a friend who was there, an ex professor of music from Brittany, told me it was the most musical and expressive rendition he had ever heard. One doesn’t expect to come to the sticks in France and be able to hear music of this quality, nor do you expect to enjoy a feast under the stars afterwards. When we left c11pm the temp was still in the 80s with the Autan wind taking off the edge.
In the sort of heat we’re having at the moment, the only things moving fast are the lizards. The French whinge and stay indoors.
