Long week of teaching and meetings with a sprinkling of composing. Highlight of the week: spotting PJ Harvey while having a coffee with Claire Barthelemy who had fast reflexes and snapped the next album cover… good to be in London!

Listening to Blur always reminds me why I came to London in ‘98 and why I still like it here. Instant mood-booster. #parklife

From the source of the Alzette to the confluence with the Sauer - 2021-2025 - S.L. Grange and I have been following this river and its stories for more than four years. Starting with Wou d’Uelzecht - Esch as part of Esch22, continuing now in Lux-City as part of LUGA, and in Mersch and Ettelbruck.
