A programme on BBC One TV (Imagine – Nigel Kennedy's Polish Adventure) has inspired me to go looking for music with Anna Maria Jopek, a beautiful Polish voice. And I found this fabulous video (Warsaw 2002), with one of my all-time guitar heroes, Pat Metheny, whom I once heard play live when I was in Barcelona in 1981:
By the way, Pat Metheny will be back in Warsaw on 2 July and in Montreux on 7 July 2010.

Oban in bloom, Oban in music
Hiya
The 26th Highlands and Islands Music and Dance Festival is happening in Oban this weekend. So the town is very busy indeed.
Still, I took a little time out to walk with a friend, and came across these beautiful wildflowers: geraniums and bluebells galore:

By the Corran Halls, Oban's large events venue, some not-so-wild flowers looked spectacular in the warm sun:
And yes, before I wended my way home, I did stop by the train station/bus station square to catch some of the music being played by excellent pipe and drum bands. Here's a wee taster:
I've just failed uploading a short video that would have given a bit of music and movement, too, but will try again later.
Cheerioh!
