@Former-Member Everyone here has kept me going over the past year-and-a-half through a very difficult time. I don't know what I'd have done without them. I'm pleased you're finding it helpful, too. I think everyone does. A great lot of people.

I know about difficult times mentally @Historylover I wouldn't wish it on anyone. I'm hoping that's in the past, the difficult time. And good to see you here again!

Better times ahead for us all, eh @Former-Member? It's good to be back. I came on this afternoon feeling really low and the reply posts have kept me busy since - and lifted my mood a bit too.

What do you mean by early music @Appleblossom?
I have never heard of Barbara Strozzi!
Did you watch the show on the Archibalds with Rachel Griffiths on the ABC? There was a work there on a refugee. Don't recall his name or the artists - but it was amazing that such a work could be produced by an artist and not by a camera. Oh - to have such talent! Must be a wonderful way to while away the hours.

Early Music ... is Classical speak for medieval, renaisance and baroque ...
Could be Francesca Caccini

I am not an artist ... just find it calms me down looking at pictures .... also means I have read a lot of text and music notes ... so poor brain very tired ... lol
