I love this one 🎹🎹🎶🎶

Does anyone remember toothpaste in a round tin? My dentist didn't know about it but I remember it as a child!

Anyone else been watching "Face the Music" on BBC 4? Remember it vaguely the first time round. Enjoying it very much and shows that classical music is timeless🎶🎶

Yorkshire-born Joseph Priestley (1733-1804), chemist, Unitarian, liberal political theorist, died on this day in Northumberland, Pennsylvania. He had fled there after a mob burned down his Birmingham home and church over his support for the American and French revolutions.

What a wonderful concert from @sinfoniaofleeds.bsky.social yesterday evening performing Beethoven Fidelio Overture Mendelssohn Symphony no 4 (Italian) Stravinsky Firebird Suite (1945) Thank you to Tony Kraus and everyone else involved🎶🎶

Reading the book Beethoven written by John Suchet mentions humming and buzzing in Beethovens ears. Could he have had what we call today "tinnitus"?

Just reading the book "Beethoven" by John Suchet Mentions there was little evidence of meetings between Beethoven and Mozart. Could there have been clashes between the two, rivalry or simply that they didn't like each other? Therefore neither would want to talk about meeting?

@leedstours.bsky.social Happy New Year to you

@lagstonehall2.bsky.social Happy New Year to you

Leeds "antiquarian" Ralph Thoresby, died otd in 1725. (300 years ago) Known for his diaries and "Ducatus Leodiensis. Without him, we wouldn't have the history of Leeds the way we know it!

Wonder how Kirkgate Market would look if it didn't have the fire in 1975? Would it still have had the entertainment space with the eating area?

Well, bought a lovely album of Chopin Polonaises performed by Maurizio Pollini Some wonderful performances here!

My second home!

Can anyone identify this tree in our front garden that in recent years started growing green spikey fruits which the squirrels love to eat? Thank you🌲

Just listening to a beautiful Elgar Cello Concerto. Steven Isserlis Philharmonia Orchestra Paavo Järvi 🎶🎶

Happy birthday to Ralph Thoresby born otd in 1658. Without him, we wouldn't have the history of Leeds as we know it🎂

Already a member!

Just reading about Queen Mary I. I'm assuming that she had a phantom pregnancy or could it have been something more sinister? Also, did Prince Philip love her or was he using her to get his hands on England?

Happy Yorkshire Day!

Because of her, I can vote in elections. Whichever day it is, happy birthday Emmeline🎂

Thank you so much to Leeds Haydn Players @melvin-tay.bsky.social Desmond Clarke and everyone else involved for a wonderful concert this afternoon. We enjoyed it so much. Thank you once again🎶🎶

Went on a lovely tour travelling on this beauty calling at Kirkstall Abbey and Middleton Railway. Very nostalgic for me because my Dad was a bus conductor in the '60s & '70s. Thank you to @LeedsCivicTrust who organised this trip.

What magic to be able to enjoy a performance like this almost 35 years later: Steven Isserlis is inside the piece from the very first note. Dvořák's Cello Concerto in B minor, performed here with the Frankfurt Radio Symphony and conducted by David Shallon, in 1991 ✨

Been waiting a long time to get this blue plaque into my photo collection!

Near where we live. Beautiful!

Love the tribute to Tom Harper in the Cathy Marsden book "No precious Truth" @chrisnickson2.bsky.social 📖📖

Well, this months focus is Sibelius Symphony no 3. A symphony that I don't know very well and we are going to see it performed live . Recording used Gothenburg Symphony Orchestra Neeme Järvi

We were there!

Love this symphony. Such a shame that it is never heard on the radio or performed in concerts🎶🎶
