Poem 162 of 230, WalkaboutsVerse (please see my blog): TEES TO TYNE: FIRST IMPRESSIONS - SUMMER 2001
Where traditions are not so rare; Sea, country and works scent the air; A multitude of monuments, Planted tubs and patterned pavements.
The longish pedestrian malls; The remnants of defensive walls; Historic buildings are a gauge Of the respect for heritage.
Wheat, rape and pines in the fields; Estuaries guarded by shields; Long sandy beaches and wide scenes; Romantic-ruin go-betweens.
Rivers in parts licked by trees, Or fringed by boat clubs, wharfs, gantries, And crossed by practical delights - Varied spans, forming pleasing sights.
Fine churches headed at Durham; Football kits ad infinitum; Kept castles - one for study; Masonry behind masonry.
And, with moulding-works out that way, It’s somewhere for a longer stay..?
I was very pleased to here you Guys perform at Boombalfestival Belgium, your music is absolutely wonderful and its nice to here some music from your part of Europe also! Now my theory that every bagpiper has to be a little crazy seems to be confirmed as well!!!! Thanks for the music and keep up the good work!!!
Sander.
P.S. What sort of singing is that on the end of Ländler 1702? Throatsinging!?
Als erstes möchten wir uns noch einmal fürs Freund sein bedanken.
Wir wollen aber auch auf die Neugestaltung unserer Seite hinweisen die nun endlich auch nach "Die Folksamen" aussieht. Schau doch mal vorbei und sag uns was du davon hältst.
Als besonderes Schmankerl, das den Besuch versüßen soll, gibts es aber auch neue Musik von uns.
Wojna Wetsow (Schlacht der Winde) ein rockiges Instrumentalstück,
Maries Wedding, ein inzwischen wohl recht bekannter traditional und
Graj Ludki ein eigenkomponiertes sorbisches Stück
Dazu gibt es noch eine neue, aktualisierte Version von Aurore Sand.
