More Stone Music

its difficult to believe that despite all the attention, there is still an almost complete lack of information about the 13 musicians carved at Rosslyn Chapel. I feel a project comong on.....

In the meantime, here's the sound of the bagpiper's music, carved in the stone cubes, as decoded by Tom Mitchell and arranged by his son Stuart.

Stone music

Stuart Mitchell has just asked me if i might be interested in taking part in the recording of his 'Roslyn Motet', the music that he and his father have spent 20 years decdoing form the carvings at Roslyn Chapel. What do you think I said?

In the merry morning of may

summer is icummen in, just.
