Hi Walt, or is it Jordan that I am replying to.
Excuse my ignorance but I have not sussed out how to use this page yet.
First qustion is how do I open the music you have posted? I am trying to learn
to play the
clarinet and would love to have a go at them...no matter how bad I can make them
sound.
As a aside I took an English amulance to a Town called Comanesti in northeast
Romania
last year just before Christmas. The mayor was overjoyed to get it as it
doubled his civic
fleet. The other vehicle is a fire engine 40 years old given by English firemen
about 5
years ago.
I have been to Romania almost every year since 1989 and just love the lovely
Buchereati!
While driving the old ambulance across Europe (what an adventure it was) we
stopped of
in Shigishwara (excuse the poor spelling) home to Mr Vlad the Impailer (or Mr
Dracular)
himself. It was a fantastic experience to arrive in the empty medievil ancient
town, at
night 1 week before Christmas, when there were NO tourists!!! We managed to have
our
last drink odf the evening in Mr Vlads very house. The bartender would only
sell us a
Swieeka (excuse speeling!!) and we were the only customers in town. What a
place. Qite
unforgetable.
We (my partner, Ioana) and I also run a Balkan music club in West London once a
month.
It is starting to have quite a good following If you or an other musicians are
in town do
get in contact beforehand and come down for the evening of bands dance and
drink. We
would love to meet others of like mind.
Looking forward to any reply
Best Wishes and Narok,
