#MonksMusic Part 2 starts today. Working forwards with roughly 225 composers & compilation albums from my collection, starting in 900 and ending in 1700 exploring the rich tapestry of Medieval, Renaissance & Early Baroque music.

Thinking about my Bluesky politics issue.
I only ever follow people who post predominantly about art & music and I am pretty rigorous about that. I know things are bad in the world but an awful lot of you have stopped with the arts & are now concentrating on how bad things are poitically

‘Nite peeps. Night tracks by Samuel Friedrich Capricornus (1628-1665). Soothing repetition that’s comforting without being dull. A soft close to the day…

I came to Bluesky to get away from the relentless doom-loop politics & for awhile it was quite calm & civilised here. Now I spend my entire time muting accounts.

"Ye lovers of the picturesque, if ye wish to drown your grief,
Take my advice, and visit the ancient town of Crieff;
The climate is bracing, and the walks lovely to see.
Besides, ye can ramble over the district, and view the beautiful scenery."
'Beautiful Crieff', 1899
