Alex Cline’s Flower Garland Orchestra – Oceans of Vows – Cryptogramophone

Oceans of Vows entails a two-hour suite broken into two parts (hence, two discs), with each part consisting of five movements inspired and/or enclosing Buddhist writing and poetry, comprising four poems by Buddhist teacher and Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh, as well as excerpts from the Buddhist text known as the Avatamsaka Sutra (the title is translated into English as Flower Garland Sutra, therefore the name of Cline’s orchestra). This expansive material was initially offered in a live performance at California State University, Northridge’s Plaza del Sol Concert Hall in October, 2015 through a grant awarded to Cline in early 2015. Cline subsequently went into the studio for two days of recording at Bridge Recorders in Glendale, CA. -- Audiophile Audition

Belgium International Golf Championship: Baptiste Mory co-leader

L’étudiant du CSU Northridge a enchaîné par trois birdies d’affilée (13, 14 et 15). Il a glissé un putt de trois mètres au 13. Sur le 14, il a profité du vent portant pour expédier un drive au bord du green. Un bon chip lui a offert un birdie facile. Il a reproduit la même opération sur le 15 : «J’aurais pu ajouter un ou deux birdies sur mes trois derniers trous où j’ai loupé trois putts de trois mètres, précise Felix. Je suis content d’être bien revenu après un aller compliqué. Une carte dans le par n’est pas mauvaise compte tenu des conditions.» -- Fédération Française de Golf - France (in French)
