As regards culture, we are lucky in Montpellier. We are spoiled! on last Friday I attended a wonderful "spectacle" of music and poetry at the Médiathèque Emile Zola.
Poet Denis Hirson and very beautiful actress Sonia Emmanuel read poems by South-African poets, and by Denis Hirson himself. The readings were punctuated by the music of Steve Potts, a very well-known musician who was born in Ohio but has lived in Paris for a long time. He plays the saxophone and the clarinet (at times both instruments at the same time).
This was a great evening. A lady in the audience said it was "sublime." I agree with her. It was one of the most beautiful cultural events I ever attended. Just perfect.
Today March 10th is my son Greg's birthday. I sent him an e-card this morning but I have not heard from him yet. Birthdays were funnier and happier when he and his brother were little children.
