listening to.. Ludovico Einaudi, In a time lapse

This is borrowed from a little french blog, recently discovered and im enjoying her work, her truthfulness is refreshing. She says, ‘If music be the food of love, play on’ I tend to agree, thank you Sabrina @tombstoneblues16 This comes at the most welcomed of timing

listening to…. Olafur Arnalds

listen to with cups of tea in the morning,

long drives in the car,

with a glass of wine while you prepare dinner in the evening,

with a book on a winters day,

play loud when you are home alone and really hear it,

pause and repeat track four and understand how trully wonderful this piece is,

most of all

if anything at all,

let yourself be moved.

my husband and I accompanied a good friend of ours to see  this fabulous band play last Thursday night. We jumped at the chance for a night out without any children in tow. The venue was at Somewhere Studios in Northcote, what can i say.. perfect. we were surrounded by creative inspiration, in this warehouse style studio/home. there was an open fire burning out the front with the musicians, their fans and like-minded music enthusiasts all sitting around enjoying each others company, sipping on mugs of mulled wine, warming their souls before the night began. Inside, a pot of vegetarian hot soup awaited with fresh sticks of lightly salted olive oil toasted bread for dipping, a pot belly stove in the middle of the room quietly burning, surrounded by candles, people gathered, talked, ate and then, listened..slowly swept away into a musical meditation with naturally beautiful imagery. You couldn’t help but be swept away within the enchantment of this sacred sound. What a great night, thank you.
