I Had a Farm in Africa
OK - so a few things came together for today's choice - we have had a week of horn solos - so today we have lots of horns - yesterday I mentioned the Wiener Waldhornverein, so I thought I would choose something from them - what I have ended up with though is the Vienna Horns (who I suspect are members of the Waldhornverein anyway).

>I had fun looking to see which video to share - there are lots of good ones. I was originally intending to choose something bright and lively for today - didn't turn out that way.
When I was in living and working in Wien we made use of the cinema on the Schottenring which was the only one in town that showed english language films - so we didn't get to have much choice as to what to watch (there was one other cinema - but that showed The Third Man all the time😃.
One film that we went to see was "Out of Africa" - if you have not seen the film it is very good, has wonderful photography, lovely music, but is very (VERY) slow and lets say it isn't exactly a film that you come to the end of feeling uplifted and go dancing down the street (not that I have actually done that after any film😁)! (at this point it would be good to tag Chris Clark as I am sure he remembers this film - but perhaps Dave Thomas remembers the story - "I had a farm in Africa....."!!)
So - this works as another peaceful interlude in your day if that is what you need (and it is very good horn playing)
