Reflections, Autumn and Music

Looking down into the stream I see the reflections of the leafless trees and the leaves floating on the pool. The blue sky is also there, below me in the water.  Everything is very still. Now and again another leaf spirals down to the surface of the pool. I could stand here a long time looking down into the reflected world.
Home from our walk I split a few logs from the fallen tree that is slowly disappearing into a woodpile for winter 2019/20, then a quick meal and out again.
Our evening outing was to another concert in Häggdånger Church. This one was music from Arvo Pärt, and then from Beethoven. It was meant as a contrast and it was certainly that. The total calm of Arvo Pärt followed by the hysteria of Beethoven... - I think I'm allowing my prejudices and preferences to show here in a way that is rather unfair to Beethoven. However, since getting home we have been listening solidly to our Pärt CDs.
If I wanted music to listen to whilst gazing into reflections in a pool it could absolutely be Arvo Pärt.
Jan has linked to one of the pieces we listened to at the concert so I'll link to another... Fur Alina, just 3 minutes 35 sec long on YouTube. The pianist is beautifully filmed too.
