Happy Easter

‘The angel said to the women, “Do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified. He is not here; he has risen, just as he said…”‘  
Matthew 28:5,6
HAPPY EASTER everyone!

Huge thanks to the Pip Eastop, awesome french horn player as well a great photographer, for trying out his new Fuji X-E1 on me and sending me these rare photos of me in action at a recent scoring session in Abbey Road Studio 1.

The Fuji X-E1 is a great camera – Pip let me have a play too. I was really impressed.  Cheers Pip! Ben :)

Christian Blackshaw

What a treat to spend a day photographing the pianist Christian Blackshaw for Wigmore Hall Live on Wednesday. His Mozart series was a huge success critically and with audiences so the CDs will be hotly anticipated…

Peter Jablonski

A treat today to see and work with Peter Jablonski again after a few years. Plus got an excellent introduction to Lutoslawski, who Peter actually met when he was 18, and in particular the piano concerto.

Happy Advent everyone!

Isaiah 9:1-7  (NIV)

9 Nevertheless, there will be no more gloom for those who were in distress. In the past he humbled the land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali, but in the future he will honour Galilee of the nations, by the Way of the Sea, beyond the Jordan—

The people walking in darkness
have seen a great light;
on those living in the land of deep darkness
a light has dawned.
You have enlarged the nation
and increased their joy;
they rejoice before you
as people rejoice at the harvest,
as warriors rejoice
when dividing the plunder.
For as in the day of Midian’s defeat,
you have shattered
the yoke that burdens them,
the bar across their shoulders,
the rod of their oppressor.
Every warrior’s boot used in battle
and every garment rolled in blood
will be destined for burning,
will be fuel for the fire.
For to us a child is born,
to us a son is given,
and the government will be on his shoulders.
And he will be called
Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God,
Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
Of the greatness of his government and peace
there will be no end.
He will reign on David’s throne
and over his kingdom,
establishing and upholding it
with justice and righteousness
from that time on and forever.
The zeal of the Lord Almighty
will accomplish this.

Happy Advent everyone! Ben :)
