I have come across Phillip's music on youtube and yes, it is something you take with you. Nice to see this article Wendy.

Although I'm not an experienced veteran like you and Margaret seem to be, I plan to become one. It's uplifting to hear and feel so much talent.

I have to admit I am more into the music of the ballet rather than the actual dancing, there are some exquisite pieces from the world of ballet and you don't have to buy into a whole production you can get cd's with tracks from a variety of ballets. You have no idea how many tunes make their way into tv commercials and even into modern pop songs - you have probably hummed many and not realised it was from Spartacus or Romeo and Juliet! 'Countenance' does conjure up the image of two dancers and it is very beautiful - that piece has a future in that area believe me :) I know you are keen for a taste of more Wilcher-wonders so I have sent you a private message regarding this. Don't leave it so long between visits !!! Correct alan – aussie made and played!

The musicians playing the music are excellent and also australian I assume?

Life has many facets - if only it was all roses :) If you are interested in building on your music knowledge and collection then Phillip is the composer to include. Of course the old masters (Bach, Mozart et al) are standards but music did not stop when Beethoven died! I could turn this reply into a whole article talking about Phillip but first I suggest you visit his site - the link is in his name - then visit Wirripang where his works are listed. It will be well worth the time :) Hi alan, nice to hear from you again! yes, I am building more on the ‘cultured’ side of the site these days – too many depressing things going on however I feel the need to write about them regardless.
