Paddy played a Bach piano prelude for me this morning which explores counterpoint in Bach’s unique way. It made for a few moments of contemplation of beauty, as Paddy would say. Or truth, if beauty and truth are the same thing.

What moves each of us at any point in our lives, I wonder? I very much enjoyed the film clips the Labbers brought in yesterday which were variously deeply moving, entertaining and inspiring. After having gotten to know more from your initial music offerings, this made for a quite different encounter with you, particularly in the light of your evolving projects and the story and film challenges you are each facing.

Your presentations will likewise be offerings and revelations.  If carefully counterpointed and constructed as well as imbued with your own personal sense of inspiration, they will create a good sense of where you are going, what you are aiming for and also be affecting to your audience. They will hopefully reflect and refract what you have done and why. Looking forward…
