#OrchestralTunes Day 5 #MusicChallenge #Musicsky Björk - Her Mother’s House (2022) youtu.be/xeKt20o-PwE?... Closing an album filled with volcanic beats & a multitude of orchestral instruments, this blissful song has the melismatic voice of Bjork’s daughter accompanied by a peaceful cor anglais.

#OrchestralTunes Day 4 #MusicChallenge #Musicsky Beethoven - String Quartet No 13 in B flat major (IV: Alla danza tedesca) (1826) youtu.be/cLsN2Ta0RPw?... Sublimely happy, playful & definitely on the tipsy side, I fell for this 40 years ago & still love it. And it’s 200 years old this year! 🎻❤️

#OrchestralTunes Day 3 #MusicChallenge #Musicsky Bach - Violin Concerto in A minor (ca 1720s) youtu.be/Ep9kZKPNMnM?... Despite being in a minor key, this music dances with a kind of exalted joy.

Despite the almost suffocating tension, surveillance & paranoia in Star City, & the life-threatening short cuts taken due to unreasonable political pressure, the launch scenes are somehow inspiring, with a feeling of both melancholy & genuine aspiration. youtu.be/seh7l3sXHKo?...

It’s iconic. Been there since before I was born, a beautiful presence in the landscape, & a magnificent reminder of great science, of humanity’s willingness to look outwards. ✨

Jodrell may be the symbol, but it's not the whole story. Welcome as the PM's intervention on Jodrell Bank is, debate earlier today showed MPs have concerns over a wide range of facilities, experiments and capabilities underpinning UK research strength. Nevertheless, the politics seem to be shifting.

Feeling a bit fluish tonight (expected) after Monday’s infusion of the osteoporosis meds. But it’s only once a year, & if it doesn’t get worse & my bone density improves, it’s definitely worth it!

The almost disastrous re-entry of Valya & Anastasia in Episode 2 of Star City is pretty much what happened IRL to Alexei Leonov & Pavel Belyayev in 1965. They weren’t attacked by a bear (!), but the incident did lead to the routine adoption of a “cosmonaut survival pistol”! youtu.be/6pX0tcu20Ag?...

#OrchestralTunes Day 2 #MusicChallenge #Musicsky Fiona Apple - Never is a Promise (1996) youtu.be/xh5xDchVdPI?... Supported by a string quartet arrangement by Van Dyke Parks, the rhapsodic piano & melodic tidal surges are wonderfully expressive of an at times almost breathless emotion.

(1/5) The opening scene of Star City is wonderful; it immediately creates an atmosphere of fear, then suddenly introduces you to the humanity of Korolev & the wonder of the events on screen. The same as the opening of For All Mankind, from a very different point of view. youtu.be/xKMC3RSwd4s?...

#OrchestralTunes Day 1 #MusicChallenge #Musicsky Tori Amos - Flying Dutchman (1992) youtu.be/XQ-aNtnDwxI?... Originally intended to close the album, this ended up as arguably her greatest B side, & very close to my heart. The final orchestral climax is overwhelming.

This pretty much describes my life over the past few years. Except the “mossy den” is a late Victorian house.

Your daily affirmation: We should always try our best, so if the best you can do today is crawl into a mossy den in the old forest and hibernate for 1,000 years, that's ok.
