Relocation of Memory (the movie)



Better understanding changing technologies and embracing "new media" opportunities are high on my 2013 agenda. My new media experiences are more than likely "old hat" for many - and so it was the day my parents left their home of nearly forty years and quite joyously, have never looked back. Raw feelings and uncertainty gave way to a wondrous and revitalised existence. My Father's Shed, My Mother's Garden and The Heart of the Matter emerged from between the cracks in the paving blocks, the galvanised pipes and the spaces in between where we used to live.
Music: Richard Stolzman and the Slovak Radio Symphony Orchestra, Maid with the Flaxen Hair, Fine Music Vol 1 (2008)

Truly beautiful understanding of a deeply poignant and difficult transition for two people after 40 years....with very different reactions to the leaving............the music is a delight and the sentiments profound
..........thank you for your talent and expertise in representing the move
One day I would like the pieces in this new home

Wow, loved it all, the music especially special as it is 'Slovak' and I have family ties to that country. Will enjoy seeing the pieces in full later.
