When we’re surrounded by something most of the time, it’s easy to take it for granted. And so it’s the case with music. I hadn’t given it much thought before, but we’re able to offer guests the opportunity to play a range of instruments (violins, guitars, saxophone, piano, didgeridoo (yes really!), accordion – and the list goes on…) or even arrange a musical soiree for their enjoyment. With a daughter at a specialist music school we are spoiled by wonderful playing. But even before that, we’ve arranged recitals for friends – and friends of friends – to listen to the extraordinary piano playing of Libor Novacek. He’s planning on coming here again in October or November, so if you would like to experience sitting in our living room listening to one of today’s most wonderful young pianists, let me know!
