The performances come thick and fast this time of year. Next up - Handel’s Messiah. A tradition for us to perform this in the lead up to Christmas, it usually sells well so grab your tickets quick!

If anybody is in the Burnley area on Sunday, please come along to hear @burnleychoir.bsky.social perform this magnificent work. We are a charity and rely on ticket sales to keep us going. If anybody can share this poster too, that would be greatly appreciated. #music #choir #elgar

This evening’s listen. Charles Dickens readings by Prunella Scales and Samuel West. A recording from 1998. It’s as good as you would expect. Both such excellent readers.

We are definitely into ‘chiffchaffs and wrens make it nigh on impossible to hear any other birds’ season. Brockholes was a cacophony of their calls this morning, despite the rain.

They’re back! First proper chiffchaff call of the year for me. At Gawthorpe Hall. #birds

Best ‘unexpected bonus in a second hand book’ I’ve ever had, I think. These were in an old book of Keats poetry which I bought this morning. I wish I had more information.
