It's not often that I'm stopped in my tracks at a wedding, but Alexander and Charlotte's wedding at Tynemouth and then on to Blackfriars Restaurant in Newcastle was a GREAT day, and I created some wonderful photographs for them to remember what a great wedding day it was with family and friends.... photographs coming soon ...
But, how about these fantastic hand painted tights? All the guests commented on them ...
One of Charlotte's best friends wore them and one of her best friends is the fashion designer Chloe Patience, one of the partners along with Mhairi McNicol in Be Baroque a recent winner in the Scottish fashion awards.
They also do hand embroidered tights ... so whether you are a guest or the bride, these look a GREAT way to stand out in a crowd!

∆Sejayno∆
"Mazdaznan" ft. Ayako Kataoka.
Sejayno is Peter B, Carson Garhart, Severiano Martinez.
Mazdaznan is a syncretistic religious health movement based on Zoroastrian and Christian ideas with special focus on breathing exercises, vegetarian diet and body culture. It was founded at the end of the 19th and the beginning of the 20th century by Otoman Zar-Adusht Ha'nish, born Otto Hanisch. The word Mazdaznan derives from the Persian "Mazda" and "Znan", and is supposed to mean "master thought".
The Mazda car corporation coincides with the anglicized pronunciation of the founder's name, Jujiro Matsuda, who was interested in spirituality, and chose to rename the firm in honor of both his family and Zoroastrianism. The word Mazda derives from Ahura Mazda, the Avestan language name for a divinity exalted by the ancient Iranian prophet Zoroaster, as the source of wisdom, intelligence and harmony.
The hand positions are Baroque hand gestures, 1644 Bulwer; thank you to the Syndics of Cambridge University Library.
Sydney lute student Oskar de Mari-Jones plays the prelude from Bach's Partita BWV 1006a. Apologies for the poor sound quality - most of the nuance and dynamics are poorly represented. Perhaps a better quality video to follow?
The partita exists in a doube-stave score in Bach's hand, with a title page in another hand. The score and key of E major suggest a keyboard piece, but the simplicity of the texture and bass line suggest a lute piece or at least a keyboard piece in imitation of the lute. The mere fact that it works well on lute however, would have been enough for an 18th century lutenist (as we can see from bwv 997, 1000). My transcription definitely favors a natural sonority and ease of play over absolute fidelity to the score - as did 18th century lutenists when they transcribed Bach's works (see 995, 997, 1000). That said, when playing on the lute, one can at least get all the notes, which is a joy after reading this piece for so long on guitar. When Approaching the dance movements however, I try to keep to Bach's original voicing (which is very light, close-textured, and avoids low basses - these are characteristics of French Lute music and in my opinion this is no coincidence).
