It's been a fun few days. I've been to see friends in (gasp) north London, which was lovely. And I also went to the Proms for the first time in my unmusical life - not at the Albert Hall in this case, but at Cadogan Hall, which is a really interesting ex-church just off Sloane Square. Pictures of the inside aren't allowed, but the Hall isn't as fun ( Read more... )

Was the Argentine guitar peaceful, or invigorating? I know nothing about the style.
The windows are nice.
Oh, Beta Colony, what a good idea.

ETA: I just found out Jackson Hole is a real place. Who knew? And it's hosting an international conference of bankers. Someone in the conference booking department likes SiFi and has a sense of humour *g*

The guitar was varied. Probably more on the invigorating side - some of it was a history of tango. But some were songs about history, so lots of different content.

I am delighted by this Jackson Hole thing. It seemed such an odd random name. Thank you!

Lovely stained glass! Sounds like an interesting concert. An hour is just about enough though I should imagine.

It was really nice. I'm going to a proper Prom this week and it's twice the length, so I may not last...

What lovely windows. I have been to the Proms in the RAH - it really is an experience.

They are stunning. It was built as a church around 1900, in an extravagant style. I'd vaguely thought it was a long time concert hall, but it's quite a recent conversion - a lovely building.

I've only been to the RAH once, and I was a kid. So I am almost excited about that!
