In His Own Words
About him
It's difficult to describe how I am NOW, planting my garlic, BUT at least I can recount what I WAS! Fisherman, Meteorologist, Statistician, Lay clerk, Big Band sax&cl, Theoretical physicist, Musician, Arts Council opera, contemporary music and Jazz specialist, University Physicist, journalist for Murdoch(!), University Music Department Chairman, Chartered Engineer teaching Mathematics, living for a few years in Florence, Vienna and Venice. NOW I'm planting garlic by the sea soaking up the musical delicacies that Aldeburgh has to offer! Two weeks ago I enjoyed the LSO doing Bruckner 9 in our local concert hall. WOW! Late in life, Another dream fulfilled! MORE DREAMS "coming soon"?
The Secret Waters of the East Coast have always been where my soul resides and Music is where my heart is most happy.
About his ideal match
Difficult these days, YOU maintain an assertive pragmatic approach to life?. You LOVE Music and the Arts and would enjoy at least an online relationship discussing the mystery of music.
“Without music, life would be a mistake.” - Friedrich Nietzsche
