The Country Girl changed the area Gentryfied one might call it. First, the University dominated and then Southerners looking for bargain houses.

It was a decent community in those days unlike the one I live in now.
 
I am enduring a medical episode and at these times I dig out something from my performing days at the CBSO ( Schools division ). As some may already know, my interest and education concentrated upon Classical music and I was honoured to be a part of a performance of the Symphony no.8 by Anton Bruckner, a 19th century Austrian composer of gargantuan works. To some, it may be ponderous but to me it is perhaps perfection of the form.

Architecturally, constructed magnificently based upon a simple musical theme and gradually built upon to an all embracing crescendo and a conclusion that turns my soul. The best pain killer apart from a bottle of MALBEC!! Definitely not Baroque. Second edit, Best conductor is Herbert Von Karajan or Bernard Haitink, specialising in Bruckner Beethoven and Wagner. I highly recommend it and best listened to with headphones.

Third edit, if you attempt to listen to this wonderful music and get bored, go directly to the 4th movement and as you progress, think of Ceaser entering Rome to his triumph following the Gallic Wars.

Warning, set aside 80 minutes. It is heavy duty and not for Radio One fans.
