Happy new year all. Spent the last 24 hours with 2 families we adore, its my Dads 77th birthday, and weve had the news that my uncle John Lubbock is to receive an OBE for 50 years of running his orchestra and 20+ years running Music for Autism. And 2014 is over, thankfully. So a good 24 hours. Just been sent this poem by my friend Teo, and its as good a manifesto for my year as I can imagine: My Symphony. To live content with small means. To seek elegance rather than luxury, and refinement rather than fashion. To be worthy not respectable, and wealthy not rich. To study hard, think quietly, talk gently, act frankly, to listen to stars, birds, babes, and sages with open heart, to bear all cheerfully, do all bravely, await occasions, hurry never. In a word, to let the spiritual, unbidden and unconscious, grow up through the common. This is to be my symphony. By William Ellery Channing
