So, a new start - thus, a new blog host was needed. Hence the blogger account.
Firstly, I'd better explain the title. As a harpsichord player, I love music of the 17th and 18th Centuries. Purcell's Eight Suites were published in a volume entitled 'A Choice Collection of Lessons for the Harpsichord or Spinnett' - a great title for a blog (for a baroque not like me), especially considering the alternate musical meaning of the word 'Lesson' (it's the English term for what the French called a 'Suite'). So yeah.
The themes of the posts on this may assume themselves into a number of categories, chiefly:
- Composition, especially major works and performances thereof
- Anything to do with performance, especially Harpsichord recitals.
- My love life - trying to find a boyfriend (or girlfriend) - it's not easy, considering all most people want is a quick-fix, if you get my meaning.
- Religion - I'm a committed Christian (Anglican/Church of Ireland), and my faith permeates into a lot of my life.
- Philosophical rantings - discussions on life, the universe and everything. And toast, of course.
Bis zum nächsten Mal!
