Piano Sailing

21 Feb 2012

'What fun - a windy day, the sun poking out from time to time behind the clouds. If I were sailing this is one of those quick round the course days. I really enjoy playing the piano and this moment captures the sound and feeling of sailing around the piano.'

‘Happy Valentines Day!

14 Feb 2012

'Happy Valentines Day! I don't think this is a hallmark moment at all.  Today my gorgeous girlfriend came home with a bunch of roses.  We both remarked that it would be nice to give one of my roses to our lovely neighbour next door, so we did - upon greeting her and delivering the single rose, we all descended into tears..  such a cute little moment as she's on her own these days and we wanted her to feel less so.  I chose this track for this podcast because it was lovely and hopeful and cheering.'
