| Happy Thanksgiving! |
It's been a busy week for us in Huddersfield as the contemporary music festival is in full swing. We've heard some great pieces performed by some fantastic musicians and it's been wonderful to meet new people and spend time with Ray's friends, everyone's been lovely.
The week started off well on Monday when Ray's piano piece; Diagrams of Drawings Not Meant to Correspond, was given a stunning performance by Kate Ledger, an amazing pianist and friend who also attended the University but has since graduated. Also in the concert was a piano piece by Ben Isaacs and one by Timothy McCormack. The pieces were united in their interest in the physicality of music and performance. It was a great concert and well attended. . . hooray!
Today we're not going to any concerts, but are taking the day to do some work and to have a Thanksgiving feast. We don't have a turkey, but we do have a whole chicken to roast with some carrots and potatoes. This morning I started dough for a loaf of rosemary wheat bread, and I baked a pumpkin spice bread with cream cheese frosting for dessert. I think we'll also have a spinach and pear salad.
Oh, and this morning we had snow flurries!?
