Halfway there!

So I've used up to ticket number 19 out of 38. For the mathematically minded amongst you that represents half the festival over and done. So far I missed two concerts, which isn't too bad going. I have to say at this stage I would do it all again next year, although I might be a little more selective. There's still only been one thing that I just completely failed to connect with. I've learned that I like slow textural pieces. I just hope the second half sees a recovery from this damnéd cold that I'm carrying.

Highlights so far: without doubt my favourite has been Prana by Peter Adriaansz; Martin Arnold's Moonlight on the Bluff was good, as was Nicole Lizée's Marsh Chapel Experiment; I enjoyed the Dror Feiler pieces Basura and Müll, David Fennessy's Big Lung and the Poppe pieces Salz and Knochen (although not Öl so much).
