Mieko Miyasaki plays the 'koto', a Japanese half-tube zither that's her country's national instrument. In 2020, she transcribed and recorded a version of Bach’s “Goldberg Variations” for solo koto. Mieko will be joined by saxophonist and clarinetist Franck Wolf when she visits Bray! #jazz #jazzsky

Great project this. The album that they released last Autumn is really worth a listen!

There’s a Turkish phrase about the upside of hitting rock bottom being that things can’t get any worse. It goes göte giren şemsiye açılmaz and it means “an umbrella up one’s ass cannot be opened”

We can't under estimate how beneficial a winter break, post CL qualification and FA Cup exit, could benefit this squad. But to your point... I think they will sign someone this week - and ship at least one out as a sale or loan.
