Since learning the violin I’ve realised how amazing composers are and how the pieces they write just somehow fit !
Barrington Pheloung - composing the Inspector Morse music.
Barrington Pheloung - discovering Classical music and his career.
Film & TV series scores played a big part in my decision to learn more about music & the Violin/Viola!
I've posted guitar videos that inspired me to play some guitar riffs & music on Violin/Viola, but I haven't tried holding my instrument like a guitar, for strumming & plucking, like some violinists & violists do... at least not yet. (lol)
It's easy to see both Classical Guitar & Violin/Viola both sound great playing Classical music!

Oh wow thanks Emily I will watch these videos! Guess what I’ve got the music and I’m playing it ! I’m visiting my dad tomorrow so I’m going to play what I have ( which is obviously really not great as only just started it ) but it has a couple of dotted rhythms and is in g major so I’ll be practicing my c and f naturals ! Who would have thought I’d be learning the theme tune to Inspector Morse !? Not me !! 🤣

Katie believe it or not I have never seen an episode of Morse, that guitar sounds very Spanish though which is quite apt as I only got back from seville yesterday, 20 degrees to 2 degrees, my teeth were chattering like a pair of maracas, great tune and nice playing, no doubt about it.

Quite true Gordon, I did manage to get a tortilla in the cafe in the Alcazar, which was ok, amd some roasta potatoes in seville sauce, which was very spicy but nice, just near the cathedral, but the rest of the time I survived on pretty bad sandwiches. When I was in Malaga recently there was an excellent restaurant on The har our called the 3 amigos, which was 3 different restaurants side by side one selling greek, one mexican and one indian, it was very pricey but brilliant food, I would highly reccomend it.

There's no reason whatever why you couldn't or shouldn't have vegetarian paella.
But it may be that the Spanish and French are more definition-bound.
My gf once made "mayonnaise" with lemon juice instead of vinegar and we had some French friends to stay. Their comment was "it's a salad-dressing, but it's not mayonnaise". They weren't stuck-in-the-mud, they were very liberal.
But perhaps it's because they are a food culture. Britain isn't really a food culture no matter how much curry we eat.
