Harp Music at the Castle Aerwinkel

Yesterday I went to the performance of 2 great artist in the castle "Aerwinkel"

In the wintersaison there are many concerts in the Castle and this was the last one of the season.

Claudia (Half Surinaams/Indiaans) loves South American music and fell in love with the harp musice from Luis Bordin (1926-2006)when she was 15 years old and promissed herself: One day I will be playing the Harp. She studied classic guitar in the Netherlands and when she met an artist who played the harp, she knew now is the time, and took lessons on de Paraguayens Harp. Since 7 years, she plays together with the fabulous guitar player Manito.

Claudia has a very warm and beautiful voice and her singing touched me deeply. Manito learned to play spanish and clssic guitar when he was only 7 years old. He is autodidact. For him the guitar is the extension of the soul.

It was a lovely sunday afternoon and I am sure to go to the castle Aerwinkel, whenever they give a concert.

Nothing works without the Music

That is the first I have to do in the morning, when I go downstairs in my shop I take my MAC plug it in and look for I tunes than the Radiostations.Is n't that fantastic now a days You have the whole world on your fingertips. Like Gypzy music, You got it, Or Classic, You got it and so on and so on. Me for my part I love to work with New Age or Jazz. There is Jazzradio.com. They have solo Guitar, Piano, Chypsi, Latin. Just great to work with, and not too much advertizing. Check it out, I'm sure You will like it.

Dieter did a good job today. He finished one frame for my textile art. Now it is so easy to put any work together I like, because You can take of the pictures very easy and change them for different effects.
So I can put winterlandscapes or Autumn feelings together. Not bad and easy to take where ever I want. Thank You my love. I apreciate it. Our cat Speedy had fun too . He found a box and that is all he needs to be happy, I forgot to take a picture of him but here is one, the two of us relaxing after hard work.

Music keeps me going

It 's true I'm very seldom without music. When driving my car, the music is nice and loud, but at home it must be soft, like jazz, blues or New Age, like: Slow changes by Shanti & Friends, or Radiance by Steven Halpern. Listen to this nice piece on of music on You Tube called

 "Chill out beauty of this world."

In California I heard the radio playing Smooth Jazz, and now with the itunes radio on my MAC, I get exactly the same music, then my memories are back with my daughter who lives in the USA.
My husband and I still love to go out dancing, then the best music for us is Latin and Rock and Roll!!!
I'm glad we both love the same kind of music.  Now I have to start working again on my textiel Art, looking for the right fabric and colours. Here the latest picture.

I need probably an other tree days to have it all ready.
