La Bellevilloise au mois de Mai...

... on May 4th, for Bidaia's concert - as announced by PPG a few days ago.

I was there early enough, at 6pm, - Caroline & Mixel were fiddling with the instruments and
sound -
this gave me time, before we have dinner, to ride around the 'Halle aux Oliviers' and
outside
in order to show you this pleasant place.





For 'Soul Cook' concerts, on Wednesdays, the 'Chef' cooks up a menu in agreement with
the musical universe of the performing artists. Tonight it's the Basque Country that has
guided his hand, with happiness.

8:30 pm, Caroline and Mixel are on stage...

... and they were good and the audience appreciated - click HERE for the videos.

Meanwhile, at the bar...

Exit Osama bin Laden!


Almost a decade...
since September 11/2001

Bin Laden was traced to a compound in Abbottabad, a relatively affluent suburb
of Pakistan’s capital,
Islamabad. He is said to have resisted and was shot in the
head during an exchange of fire
in the compound.
The body is said to have been taken to Afghanistan and then buried at sea.

With 'Agur Shiva', BIDAIA [which means 'travel' in Basque language] continues his journey
by visiting other musical cultures. 'Agur Shiva'
reflects this idea of travel by tapping into
the roots of the Basque rhythms and melodies of the main compositions, while linking
them to other traditions, notably India and Carnatic music.

2011 Easter Eggs on a balcony...




This year, I gardened outside my window
I sowed some seeds of egg plants
I regularly watered and monitored the tender shoots
Flowering
was successful and promising
The
promises have become eggs...
Happy Easter !
