Tastily complex string and bow work...

Playlist

Roy Wood – Music Book

Handel – Oboe Concertos

Cloudland Blue Quartet – Riverleaves

Cloudland Blue Quartet – Starlightnight

Various Composers – Flute Music of the Danish Golden Age

Rawsthorne – String Quartets

Woke to Roy Wood and Handel accompanied breakfast...

Into town with my as yet unreleased instrumental opus on the cans...

HMV tokens now worthless...

Oh well...

Despite this, still visited at lunchtime - maybe it was just me but a different atmosphere today...

Nothing purchased...

Along to Fopp...

...and three classical discs for just over £6, some flute music which was enjoyed in Denmark back in the day, a disc of quite excellent and tastily complex string quartets from English composer Alan Rawsthorne, and a 2CD set of piano music by Robert Helps with, mostly, string quartet or trio, which I am yet to sample...

In the evening...

....other than listening some of this new stuff, enjoyed "Death in Paradise"...

Lights out...

Highlight of the Day : New string quartets...

Crispycat Latest Release

"I know I produce an awful lot of music, which can make it hard to keep up. But, at the end of each year since 2021, I've produced a tasty compilation ("The Originals") featuring one track from each release. So, every year, if you're only going to buy one CBQ album, make it that one!" "Twentytwentyfour: The Originals" is a 130 minute selection of tracks from the fifteen 2024 releases by Cloudland Blue Quartet. The collection is issued in anticipation of (and includes a track from) the fifteenth and final record of the year, "Twentytwentyfour", a multi disc compilation of rare and previously unreleased recordings made by CBQ throughout 2024, which is due on 31 December.

Cloudland Blue Eclectic Selection

In a one-man crusade to encourage the world to broaden its musical horizons, David has been broadcasting a weekly Eclectic Selection of music from across his vast record collection since 2014. On the programme each week, you'll hear 25 Tracks, kicking off with David's LP of the Week, followed by his six other LPs of the day, three or so CBQ, or CBQ related, tracks, a single of the week (if there is one), a couple more singles (if there are any) and a further eclectic mix of other things new into the collection... It's eclectic!
