Pour nous tous, la photographie c?est un travail solitaire, avoir la reconaissance des amis c?est la meilleure des intimes satisfactions. Dans ces moments de joie un grand souvenir pour deux grands amis qui nous manquent et que sa perte est irrempla?able, Ted Grant et Steve Barbour. En effet j?aime beaucoup l?op?ra et je suive normalement la saison de notre Th?atre ? Barcelone le Liceu, lorsque j?ai voyag? ? N.Y. en 2003 j?ai vu 4 op?ras au MET dans une semaine, Faust, Nabucco, Otello, Les Troyens (fantastique!), j?avais ? l'?poque un petit business de distribution de musique que apr?s la crise d?clanch? en 2008 je n?ai pas pu continuer, j?aime beaucoup les voix et j?ai une petite bonne collection historique, j?aime beaucoup les enregistrements historiques, dont beaucoup n'ont ?t? pas surpass?s. Mon p?re ?tait baritone mais par des circonstances familiales il n?a jamais chant? professionnellement, il a enregistr? un disque en 1932 pour une epreuve de voix de la Soci?t? Parlophon (je garde ce disque) ils l?ont fait offre d?un contrat mais il ne l?a pas suivi. I thank you as well as to say to you once again my thanks for your beautiful gesture as for your kind words about my photos, it is really an indescribable pleasure to belong to this group. For all of us, photography is a solitary work, to have the recognition of friends is the best of intimate satisfactions. In these moments of joy a great memory for two great friends we miss and that his loss is irreplaceable, Ted Grant and Steve Barbour. Indeed I like opera very much and I normally follow the season of our Theatre in Barcelona the Liceu, when I travelled to N.Y. in 2003 I saw 4 operas at the MET in one week, Faust, Nabucco, Otello, Les Troyens (fantastic!), I had at that time a small music distribution business that after the crisis in 2008 I couldn't continue, I like voices very much and I have a small good historical collection, I like historical recordings very much, many of which have not been surpassed. My father was a baritone but due to family circumstances he never sang professionally. He recorded a record in 1932 for a voice test of the Soci?t? Parlophon (I keep this record) they offered him a contract but he didn't follow it.
