A Tale with a Twist!

I looked through my brochure and made a mental note ....

Oct 28th, Crooked Spire Church,

"a sizzling night of driving Irish dance tunes,

hot jazz stompers 

and 

achingly beautiful Celtic music".

I booked at the box office

pointed to the page and

quickly laid the tickets away in my bag. 

I looked forward to the evening

we dined ....

we talked ....

I took pics in the churchyard,

a beautiful haunting evening close to 

All Hallows Eve.

We entered the church ...

led to our seats ...

lights were dimmed ...

atmosphere and ambiance
as anticipated ...

and then .... 

the musicians; violin, flute, harpsichord?!?

'Well it is Irish' I thought,

out came the music sheets,

Bach's Preludes, Vivaldi's Sonata ?!?

The music commenced,

I looked at 'my love' 

he seemed to be in the 'moment',

I sat through the first 'movement'

thinking 'it's going to get a bit more livelier later'!

I sat through the second 'movement' thinking
'no Irish music I've heard is referred to as a 'movement',

but what do I know?

Interval time came,
I turned to 'my love' and asked 
"are you enjoying it?"

I could tell by the bemused look on his face, he wasn't sure!!!

"It's not what I thought" he said,

 I agreed,

"shall we make a dash for it?"

!!!!

.... consulting the brochure later on, it read

Thursday 28th October Maire Ni Chathasaigh

Friday 29th October Fiori Musicali 

I ask you? 

Was it all double dutch,

a 'senior moment',

or the woman in the [] office

???
