I am a "semi-retired" professional cellist, born in England, but living in BC for the past 45 years. I have a passion for drawing and will endeavour to use the medium of pen-and-ink to comment each day on anything current, cultural or comical that catches my attention.

    Hoping to connect with Ian Hampton! Can this be forwarded?

    Ian, I am thinking that many decades ago we were playing Britten (St. Nicholas??) in (likely) St. Andrews-Wesley at the time of his death. You have a much stronger memory than I, but this does stick with me. Correct piece?

    Cheers, Bill Wilmer Fawcett
