In the meanwhile

I went to the old building and worked hard on the newest Handel suite. The allemande is starting to sound lovely, the allegro and sarabande are falling into shape, and I've started work on the menuet and variations. I went out for a fag and noticed two very disappointed-looking women looking at our front door. Well that just won't do. I gave them a guided tour and the talk on music-making and they loved it. They left a generous donation in the box on the reception desk too, and wrote nice comments in the visitors- book. Having had enough of playing, I brought myself back to the library.
