    A Cure for a Distracted Mind? – Spanish Music Selection No 16

    I keep getting interrupted as I fluff about ensnared in that myriad of mundane but necessary chores that take too large a slice of time out of my day. Interrupted by the music that is. I’ll be attempting some menial task, when, what will issue forth from my little Bluetooth speaker is something...

    Remembering

    Each time I have been on Camino I am moved by the memorials to the departed Pilgrims in so many places along the way.I always say a prayer as I pass and one in particular at Moratinos I pause in remembrance as I knew Phil,known as The Methodist Pilgrim,who gave me much advice and encouragement...

    Long distance pilgrims trade gifts

    Walking the Camino Frances a couple of years ago, I kept meeting up with Lindsay from Scotland. We never walked together, but - whether in a busy bar in a big city or on a remote side trail where I saw no one else - there was Lindsay. We'd have a beer (for him) and a glass of wine (for me)...

    Sounds of the Camino

    I was watching a Camino video the other day (preparing to update my video list resource) and there was a scene in a bar with the clattering of cafe con leche cups and the sound really took me back to the Camino. What sounds really take you back to the Camino? I'll start us off with a few: - the...

    A tiny light

    Its been dark lately So I went outside and took a little walk to clear my head. Its funny how such a simple thing for so short a time can put things in perspective. Bad times are not forever and good times never last. The Camino seems a long time and far away now. So I looked up..and saw the...

    Fernando Sor’s Op.9, “Variations on a Theme of Mozart” - Spanish Music - Selection No 12

    The man that hath no music in himself, Nor is not moved with concord of sweet sounds, Is fit for treasons, stratagems and spoils; The motions of his spirit are dull as night And his affections dark as Erebus: Let no such man be trusted. William Shakespeare He lead an interesting life did...

    Spanish Music - Selection No 10

    Well.....Today's selection is not all about music. But the positive reaction to Paola Hermosin last week encouraged me to submit this utube video of her trip to Cordoba. She had been invited to perform there and took the opportunity to make a video record of her visit. And if you ever wondered...

    Annie Cordy - a 1952 song - A Compostelle

    Annie Cordy, a Belgian actress and singer and "one of the French-speaking world’s best-loved musical comedy performers" according to USA Today, died at the age of 92 on September 4, 2020. I recently discovered her song "A Compostelle". It is a charming little song from a different time. Not a...

    Virtual Camino? Kind of...

    While I have never been to Portugal not even as a tourist I'm simply in love with fado and its performers even when the songs are a little bit more pop-ish. Don't know why really but they kind of bring me somewhere over there to Iberia. Missing Camino/Caminho oh so very much this song kind of...

    Luar na Lubre is one of the loveliest Galician folk bands and this is one of their latest songs regarding the Camino de Santiago.

    A Guitarist NOT on the Camino

    It'll come as a surprise to none that my amigo Richard Durrant will not be making his Bicycle/Guitar pilgrimage from St Mungo's in Orkney to Santiago this Autumn (Fall). It won't surprise many that local, community, Arts Centres are under the cosh. This is not a funding request. I just thought...

    Spanish Camino Music – Selection No. 7

    When one sees a Utube video that has had over 18 million views, one would think that alone would deem it essential viewing. When the video in question is a "Classical"guitar performance, and by someone to me unknown, that absolutely guarantees I'll be hitting the GO button. One can debate as to...
