Skirt Cafe is an on-line community dedicated to exploring, promoting and advocating skirts and kilts as a fashion choice for men, formerly known as men in skirts. We do this in the context of men's fashion freedom --- an expansion of choices beyond those commonly available for men to include kilts, skirts and other garments. We recognize a diversity of styles our members feel comfortable wearing, and do not exclude any potential choices. Continuing dialog on gender is encouraged in the context of fashion freedom for men. See here for more details.

Uncle Al,
I have just enjoyed 52-odd minutes of sheer joy watching a you-tube video titled: The organ of Notre Dame |ARTE tv culture. I don't know how to post an actual link, but typing in that title should steer you to the right video. The commentary is in French with English subtitles, but the music is divine.

For information -- Arte (or rather, arte) is a Franco-German cultural television channel with sound and subtitles in both French and German. It puts on frequent concert, opera and other music events, including live relays. It's receivable across Europe free-to-air on a small (60cm) dish and it deserves to be better known.
Hi all. Not posted in some time (though I have been lurking around here, reading many of the threads).
Been using Instagram a lot lately, where I came across the delightful Anna Lapwood. She is in the US right now visiting a number of places and performing. She is visiting a couple of locations in Boston, but it looks like they are private events rather than open to the public performances.

This clip is 8 years old and I've just found it.
4 musicians playing 1 instrument, celebrating Maurice Ravel's Birthday
Enjoy
Zero musicians playing one enormously big (long?) instrument!
I've seen this clip before and thanks for the repeat
