Stained Glass 2

Sanctuary Winter Apples

Here’s the same piece that I played in the fantastic arched tunnels of the nearby Peterborough Lift Lock. This is a second take, played at a faster tempo - still not totally pleased with my performance, but it’s interesting how these traditional dances can be easier to play at a quicker speed! Recorded after an intense day of conducting music exams, I think my brain was in more writing mode than playing, but I couldn’t resist the opportunity to ’sound the acoustics’ of St. Lukes‘ superb sanctuary.
