Hello Everyone,
Happy New Year to you all.
I wish everyone health and happiness in 2026.
Referencing back to my words in December …. It was the 22nd. before I heard a full version of Away in a Manger, but, it was beautifully sung with correct breathing in that third verse!
My December had cultural highlights. What a wonderful performance of Singin’ in the Rain we enjoyed at the Manchester Exchange Theatre. December 20th. A stunning performance by a talented cast.
I was lucky enough to attend Yuja Wang’s sensational appearance at the Concertgebouw in Amsterdam, Prokofiev Piano Concerto No. 2. December 14th. At the Liverpool Philharmonic Hall Ian Tracey’s organ concert included a favourite of mine Berlioz, The Shepherd’s Farewell. December 22nd. At home I have had the time to enjoy my Christmas music including my Elvis CD Christmas Peace!
Gallery wise I enjoyed my visit to our Walker Art Gallery for the Turner: Always Contemporary. When in Amsterdam as well as a day at the Rijksmueum I particularly delighted in the Brancusi exhibition at the H’ART Museum.
Now I look forward to our programme of lectures for 2026 and I hope to welcome many of you to our next lecture, January 19th.
Much more than soup cans.
The life and work of Andy Warhol.
Our guest lecturer is Bill Powell.
