It’s a real surprise to find The Roundhouse still selling beer. Presumably, the supplies of mead were en route, being transported by bands of peasants grateful for the opportunity to serve a nation in this time of enforced sadness. We’ll all need something to get us through these difficult times.
Of course I knew soft ocean waves weren’t creeping up to multi-instrumentalist Yann Tiersen when he took the stage at the Sydney Opera House earlier this week, but I could have sworn I saw them.
“How many instruments can you play?” “Three”, said the young man rather confidently, for he was considered by many of his friends to be musically gifted.
Though he’s best known for his soundtrack work, most notably the whimsical score for Amelie, he’s also released seven solo albums over a quietly prolific career that spans nearly two decades.
