I am a great enthusiast of classical music, particularly baroque music, Beethoven and Schubert.  I like harpsichord music a lot and play the harpsichord at a low level of competence.

My favourite musical venues:

Wigmore Hall
Glyndebourne

 

I'm an ex-chessplayer.  I still solve hundreds of puzzles per year online at Chess Tempo and Shredder.
