The post" Low Horizons" fallow period continues... One wonderful highlight was a trip to Bridgewater Hall with Nicky to a concert featuring the Royal Northern College of Music Orchestra performing with one of my favourite Icelandic composers Olafur Arnalds. What a superb night. A string quartet playing Radiohead tracks from "kid a" greeted us in the foyer, The R.N.C.M. performed Jonny Greenwood's "popcorn superhet receiver" followed by the amazing Dyad Percussion Duo . Stravinsky "Rite of Spring followed ...this was truly mindblowing. The evening ended with the premier of Olafur Arnalds' "and they have escaped the weight of darkness". Truly magnificent
