Science writer covering nano to astro via bio, but mostly bio these days (Latest book: Intertwined - from insects to icebergs, JHUP 2024). Known for cycling around Oxford with a cello on my back and/or half a dozen other instruments in my baskets. Rescuing and restoring unloved violins. Writing musical family history memoir and digging up old photos and postcards. Mostly tooting in English, but might also use French, German, Spanish, Galician if and when required.
#Milena Jesenská Prager Hinterhöfe im Frühling: Feuilletons und Reportagen 1919-1939 Hardcover – 30 Nov. 2020
- Stehen da jetzt dieselben Texte drin wie in "Alles ist Leben: Feuilletons und Reportagen 1919-1939 ???
Habe fast den Verdacht, dass die neuere Ausgabe nur darauf zurueckzufuehren ist, dass ihr Copyright abgelaufen ist?
I have a lovely #oud which I am planning to play more often from now on. Made in #Syria around 2000, I was told. Could any #Arabic speaker tell me what the writing on the label says?
#Oxford #tomorrow, Wed. 8th., #Cowley orchestra is hosting a special feature evening with Elsa Vass-de-Zomba conducting #Schubert's Unfinished Symphony. All instruments welcome, free participation. That's at #TheOxfordAcademy in the Beecroft Theatre on the ground floor, meet at 7pm. (plenty of space even for listeners, even though we're not performing as such) #AmateurOrchestra #PlayForFun
#Oxford #SaveTheDate next week, Wed. 8.10., #Cowley orchestra is hosting a special feature evening with Elsa Vass-de-Zomba conducting #Schubert's Unfinished Symphony. All instruments welcome, free participation. That's at #TheOxfordAcademy in the Beecroft Theatre on the ground floor, meet at 7pm.
this is the event we overlapped with - as always, if we had better communication between the #Oxford International Links, I would have known about this beforehand, but I didn't.
#Oxford's #CowleyOrchestra is doing a special feature evening next week, on May 14, starting 7pm. This time the focus is on #LouiseFarrenc's 3rd symphony in G minor. We will be supported by a few people who have played this work at a one-day workshop last year.
All players of orchestral instruments welcome, participation free of charge for this once. #Violins especially welcome as we're often short of those.
never mind #coalitions. The #election result in #Germany clearly calls for a #TwoStateSolution. Western Germany, let's call it BRD, could ban the #noAFD, whereas East Germany (DDR) would be free to align itself with Moscow.
#Germany is a wobbly tower of #jenga on the cover of the Spiegel special for the general #election: #Bundestagswahl
