Paper myths
While rummaging around for inspiration for some quilled wedding invitations I’m making for a friend, I (again) came across the wonderful blog If Looks Could Quill, where a quilled dragon and phoenix also features… truly beautiful works of art!

Anonymous 4 ‘s music is some of the most beautiful I have ever heard. I first came across their CD Four Centuries of Chant while browsing the Classical Room at a local music shop – and now I’m slowly building my music library to contain all their CDs… (And look out for one of the songs tomorrow on Ageless Words – with a translation, of course!)
“Renowned for their unearthly vocal blend and virtuosic ensemble singing, the four women of Anonymous 4 combine musical, literary, and historical scholarship with contemporary performance intuition as they create ingeniously designed programs, interweaving music with poetry and narrative.”
Time to brag about local talent…
I also got a delightful surprise birthday gift from my sister and brother in-law – tickets to see South African Ballet Theatre’s Romeo & Juliet! And last Saturday was chosen especially because my favourite dancers were performing. Here’s a small gallery. I see the next ballet for the season will be The Sleeping Beauty – can’t wait! I have to get tickets. And it’s always a pleasure to go to the theatre.
