Hi,
last 10 days were busy.
On thursday 27 April I was on a concert of one of my amateurorchestra where the son of the 15 year leading conductor Alexandru Lascae was playing 2th Bartok (which we played earlier with this orchestra with Joris van Rijn)

friday 28 April I heard Vadim Repin playing the rare violinconcerto of Myaskovsky. I got his autograph and I gave him 11 rare violinconcerto (just like Joshua Bell he didnt know that'Ysaye had written a violinconcerto)and a Vieux Temps-beer, Saint-Sanes-wine and a Bach-wine. He must laugh about those names.


Saturday I played with Elodie Mendels the Romance of Svendson.

Next morning saturday 29 April up at 5.00 in a hotel for a trip through the Channeltunnel with my car for the first rehearsal in England in Bruton (under Bristol at the West-coast)at 14.00 hour. After a rehearsalweek we played the violinconcerto of Barber with Jurjen Soeting, a quartet-player from the Romeo-string Quartet from Holland in Bruton and Bath.

Sundayevening 7 May I came back after missing a channelboat with some foto's (later more) and 15 cans of English beer and cidre.
