Thank you to everyone who tuned into the Sea Songs Special on Sunday night - I loved picking up your comments during and after the show. It was a really great topic to explore - hope you enjoyed joining in with those shanties... The recording is up on YouTube now so you can catch it there or listen again :)) https://youtu.be/-_j92er6rSY

So the theme for next time will be Journeys... Provisional date of Thurs 20th May - look forward to seeing you then! x

From a trip to the Alison Jacques Gallery London to see The Gees Bends quilt exhibition. Quilts made from any bits of fabric available to these women in this poor community in Alabama. They created their own patterns. The souls grown deep website has more background info if interested.

The American Museum is closed at the moment, I'm assuming it will open when other major museums open mid May, but it doesn't actually say on their website.

Thank YOU, Capitan of the now-creaky piano :) On with Journeys... Please tell her to keep swimming along. It looks like she may be caught in a red tide https://serc.carleton.edu/microbelife/topics/redtide/general.html

That she did! And she did not swim away during the performance :) Yes, a cuica! Now the piano has multi-instrumental capabilities like the mini accordion. I didn’t know its name, just its sound. Thank you for the name. Either cuica or someone imitating it with voice, features in the Billy Eckstine version of A Felicidade. South American instrument names, things hanging on bathroom walls, another convergence:
