I hope to make many new friends here, though I can see that I already know many, many friends from other forums.

It´s nice to be in Ireland!
Hello Pepe, I am delighted that you have joined our little group, I thought Fergus might have had something to do with it. You are very welcome.

Our "local" Rosary Sonatas with Camerata Kilkenny. I listened to Sonata V, The Finding of Jesus in the Temple.
I must search that one out Ciaran. I have seen Maya Homburger perform on many occasions and I have great respect for her talent.

Hi Pepe; it's great that you've come to visit us over here... you'll never meet a friendlier bunch on any forum, and I hope you have a great time. In return, you're incredible in-depth knowledge in all things Classical and erudite manner, will continue to help enlighten some of us whose knowledge is no so incredibly in-depth... ;-)

a warm welcome...
