A third interlude (of the musical variety)
I'm really looking forward to the event I'm playing at on Saturday. Playing sixteenth-century music in a sixteenth-century room is one of the most satisfying things I've ever done. I know I'm not the world's greatest player, not by a long chalk, but I play competently and stylishly, and give an account of the music that is faithful to the period and style. I know my stuff, and I have been told (by people who know) that my scholarly approach to playing informs my performance. I can't see myself at St John's, Smith Square just yet. It doesn't matter to me. I like what I'm doing.
