Paimpont 2018: Day 189 - Christophe

Tonight we had another concert in the Abbey with Lawena who plays Celtic Harp and sings traditional Celtic songs. She was as usual accompanied by Christophe - a tall gangly shy man whom I have only ever known as her 'roadie'... tonight though, Christophe closed the concert with three virtuoso improvised pieces that had the audience on their feet.

It would be truer to say that Christophe made love to his harp for three extended periods - I hope this image conveys, albeit in a small way, the emotion that he created.

BoB? Are you kidding me?
A beautiful image and your description of the evening is wonderful.
