Re: P.E.Jukebox your selections please
Something not quite right with that post Steve, the text about the13 year old not there and the link goes to a youtube playlist?
Hope your back is not too bad but if you are confined to bed tomorrow you could always watch my autumn video and tell us how many leaves drop during the film.
PS Corrected now and working fine. I missed out on going to see André Rieu at Maastrict earlier in the year when my mate's wife fell ill the week before and I agreed to go with him to use her prepaid ticket. Sadly for me she recovered the day before the trip so I obviously insisted she should go after all. pity, it was a great evening by all accounts!!

André Rieu comes in for a lot of criticism but he does take some very talented newcomers under his wing an brings them to prominence.

Indeed he does, and while being a serious musician he has a great sense of humour with the audience! (According to my mate of course!)

Fancy learning a bit of French? Nice and slow, and characteristically French May even get three violins from Mick for this one!

Re: P.E.Jukebox your selections please
Thanks for posting that Neil, brought back some memories of a day trip to Calais when I was an apprentice!! Even understood most of it!! As you've given yourself 3 violins I thought I'd go for this:

Very nicely done to celebrate the "Metro" not in Paris but bonnie Newcassel! (phonetic correct pronunciation!)
Regards Neil

Well done to the people of Newcarsal (phonetically correct pronunciation if you live darn sarf! ). I thought that was an excellent thing to do and excellently done, hard to believe that geordie lass had never seen an escalator before 1980 though!!

Re: P.E.Jukebox your selections please
The place I worked did loads of publicity for the Metro as it was being constructed, mainly for the contractors and DJB engineering that built the articulated dump trucks - that used Citroen suspension
I haven't seen that video previously though.
Closest was one I missed at the MetroCentre. Pulled now unfortunately but IIRC they were promoting Peugeot cars at the time.
One of the violinists is Eos Chater, sister to the nightmare opera singer on the dreaded insurance adverts
She also taught Benedict Cucumberbatch to play violin for the "Sherlock" series.

Re: P.E.Jukebox your selections please
There was a duet posted here with Alfie Boe a few days ago.
Just listening to "The Humming Chorus" (Puccini) there is a little passage that sounds like it is from "Bring Him Home" but more likely the other way round.
I first heard the tail end of it a few years ago on an American Memorial Day concert, just before Jackie Evancho sang.
It was a contralto singing and I have failed miserably to track the singer down. It was the first time I had heard it and thought it was wonderful.
Alfie Boe is OK but can't match the contralto.

Googled "Contralto American Memorial Day" and turned up a story I didn't know existed relating to Marian Anderson's performance in front of the Lincoln Memorial April 9th 1939.
