During an evening visit to Mount Tabor Park in Portland, I came across this fashionable female sitting beneath a tree and singing to her soul's content while playing a musical instrument which I later learned was a portable "harmonium." Thanks for viewing! May you find some moments of harmonium amidst life's pandemonium :)

INFO 'The Domesday Book records Ringmore as a Devon Manor known then as ‘Ronmore’. Stephen de Haccombe, and his successors are know to have built three chapels in the area, two survive as chapels today, one at Haccombe, and the other is St Nicholas in Ringmore, Shaldon.
The third local chapel is only a ruin. Church Architects are of the opinion the St Nicholas is of 13th Century origins, a fact borne out by the East end Wall with it’s Lancet window-a fact accepted as proof.
Records of various events refer to this church, and the Register of Baptisms was started in 1616, prior to that, Baptisms had taken place at Haccombe. About this time, the Carew family –now Lords of the Manor of Haccombe, carried out repairs to St Nicholas, but the fabric of the building, and it’s architectural features were kept intact. Haccombe Church supplied the Clergy to the Church until 1621 when the first Clergy signed the Baptism register - Elezeus Coke.
Burial and Marriage registers were than started –and in 1671 Lord Clifford bought several local estates including the Manor of Ringmore with St Nicholas Parish. Bishop Keppel visited the church in 1768 and decided that care was needed to restore the Church.
By 1790 a large extension had been added, and a gallery built, along with various other improvements. Mention of a Church organ was made in 1827, but was then replaced with an early version of the Harmonium called a ‘Seraphine’. 1839 saw a gallery added to the North wall for the Sunday School, and a new roof with a domed skylight and wooden Bell tower added in1841. The original font had been removed, and replaced by the existing font-which is Saxon or early Norman.
Reverend Richard Marsh-Dunn cancelled plans for any more changes to St Nicholas, as he had decided to build a new church on the reclaimed land on Riverside in Shaldon.
This was consecrated and dedicated to St.Peter, and became the new Parish Church of St.Nicholas, South Devon in 1903. St Nicholas was subsequently renovated with funds generated by a generous benefactor, and was given the official title of Chapel of Ease.'

L'enfant Des Cathédrales - Gérard Lenorman
Cet enfant-là n'était pas de son siècle
Celui des stades et des discothèques
Dans les églises, il aimait se cacher
Pas pour prier mais pour chanter
Il attendait qu'il n'y ait plus personne
Il s'asseyait près du grand harmonium
Et il jouait d'un doigt hésitant
Sans savoir, le coeur battant
Là, dans la cathédrale
Sous une pluie d'étoiles
Des voix lui répondaient
Venues de tous les temps
Il inventait des mots
Qu'il ne comprenait pas
Et il pleurait l'enfant
En écoutant sa voix
Il chante ce soir
Dans ce grand music-hall
Drôle de cathédrale
Pour une drôle d'idole
Qu'elle est loin la sono du bon Dieu !
L'harmonium lui manque un peu
L'enfant des cathédrales
Est tombé des étoiles
Il chante des chansons
A la couleur des temps
Mais n'oubliez jamais,
Bien qu'il chante l'amour,
Qu'il restera toujours
L'enfant des cathédrales

Comme un fou - Harmonium
At times ...
Haven't the foggiest
Pretty much unaltered photo
Notwithstanding the antique feel
Little shadow overlay removal
Guess what ?
After that attempt at pixel adjustment ...
Still haven't a clue

Edward Elgar's Sospiri op. 70 - cello Sol Gabetta
Sospiri, Op. 70, is an adagio for string orchestra, harp (or piano), and organ (or harmonium) composed by Edward Elgar just before the beginning of World War I.
While composing it, however, he realised that he was writing something more intense, and so chose an Italian word, sospiri, meaning "sighs".

Lenka found her grandmother's Anna Hana collection of poems from pre WWII and some from her internment in Concertation Camp 1942-1945. It was just in 2016 and she had no idea that these booklets existed. Lenka, originally from Prague, turned many of the poems into songs, some sung in original, some translated. Lichtenberg was a child star in Prague, but left at 18 (via Denmark) to Vancouver, Canada. Now here for decades, she is successful singer, songwriter and created excellent theatrical and musical performance "Thieves of Dreams" from the found poems and diaries.
Performed with some of the best musicians in the city: Fern Lindzon-piano, Vocals; Joe Phillips- bass; Rebekah Wolkstein-violin; Auri Fell- saxophone, ukulele, vocals, percussions; Lenka Lichtenberg- vocals, keyboard, harmonium. Her harmonium is quite unique instrument, this is the only time, I seen someone play it.. I wanted to ask her about it after the concert, but she was too occupied.

The original church of St John the Baptist at Stokesay, near Craven Arms, was built around 1150 as a chapel to Stokesay Castle and was probably expanded once the castle site developed in the 13th century. As a result of the Civil War destruction Stokesay church is a rare example of a church extensively rebuilt during the Puritan period (1654) although some Norman features survive at lower levels, especially on the north side of the building.
Featuring in Simon Jenkins England's Thousand Best Churches, its most striking features are the biblical texts on the walls, two decker pulpit, box and canopied pews and a West Gallery. This has a staircase leading to it and at the north side, space for the musicians. Originally the band would have included a bass viol, flute and clarinet, and was replaced about 1855 by a harmonium, and later still by the present organ. Today it is still the parish church which serves Craven Arms and there is regular worship at 10am on most Sundays.

Die evangelische Dorfkirche Schenkendorf ist eine spätgotische Saalkirche in Schenkendorf, einem Ortsteil von Mittenwalde im Landkreis Dahme-Spreewald in Brandenburg. Der Sakralbau wurde vermutlich Ende des 14., Anfang des 15. Jahrhunderts aus Feldsteinen errichtet. Bislang konnte nicht herausgefunden werden, ob die Kirche zu dieser Zeit zum Bistum Brandenburg oder zum Bistum Meißen gehörte. Für Brandenburg spricht, dass Prämonstratenser am Bau beteiligt waren und sie das Prinzip der Kleinparochie verfolgten: In jedem Dorf sollte eine kleine, eigene Kirche vorhanden sein. Ein weiteres Indiz für eine Baubegleitung durch ein großes Kloster liegt in der bei dieser Feldsteinkirche angewendete Zwickeltechnik, die erfahrungsgemäß nur von ausgebildeten Handwerkern, nicht aber von den Einwohnern eines kleinen Dorfes ausgeübt wurde. Im Zuge der Reformation wurden baulicherseits kaum Veränderungen vorgenommen. Jedoch wurde die Kirche in Schenkendorf zur Pfarrkirche erhoben. Experten vermuten, dass im Dreißigjährigen Krieg der massive Westturm niederbrannte. Mit der Herrschaft derer von Löben wurde das Bauwerk wiederaufgebaut. Sie erwarben 1657 unter anderem auch Schenkendorf und renovierten in den Jahren 1662 bis 1669 das Bauwerk und bauten es im protestantischen Geist um: Die Fenster wurden vergrößert und mit einer Laibung versehen, Turm und Dach erneuert. Der Altar, die Kanzel und Fünte wurden durch eine barocke Ausstattung ersetzt. Zu dieser Zeit entstand auch die nördlich an das Kirchenschiff angebaute Sakristei mit einer Gruft. In den Jahren 1734 und 1789 ließ die Kirchengemeinde den Turm sanieren. Überlieferungen zufolge brach im August 1800 der Fußboden vor dem Altar ein. Dabei wurde ein Grabgewölbe entdeckt, dass jedoch wieder zugeschüttet wurde. 1811 gelangte Schenkendorf zu Königs Wusterhausen. 1866 bekam der Turm seine Uhr; drei Jahre später ersetzte die Kirchengemeinde ein Harmonium durch eine Orgel. Im 19. Jahrhundert stieg die Zahl der Kirchgänger stark an, da in der Nähe ein Bergwerk eröffnete. Die Kirchengemeinde ließ daher eine Hufeisenempore einbauen, damit alle Besucher einen Platz fanden. Gleichzeitig wurde das Kirchengestühl zweigeteilt, so dass ein breiter Mittelgang entstand. Zwischen 1900 und 1910 wurde das Bauwerk neubarock überformt und ein Ofen eingebaut, der an die Ostwand hinter dem Altar aufgestellt wurde. Schnell zeigte sich jedoch, dass der Innenraum in Mitleidenschaft gezogen wurde und neu ausgemalt werden musste. Der Kirchturm wurde über eine Tür mit dem Kirchenschiff verbunden und der Boden gefliest. Dabei fanden Bauarbeiter im westlichen Kirchenschiff weitere Grüfte, die ebenfalls zugeschüttet wurden. Der Anbau war ebenfalls Schauplatz einiger Baumaßnahmen. Dabei stellten Arbeiter fest, dass die Särge geöffnet und die mumifizierten Leichen frei lagen. Eine Seitenwand stürzte ein und wurde neu aufgemauert. Die aufwendig gestalteten Ostfenster sind eine Schenkung einer Witwe Möricke aus dem Jahr 1910. 1957 ließ die Kirchengemeinde das Dach neu eindecken und reparierte 1965 erneut den Turm mit seiner Laterne. 1962 entfernten Arbeiter die südliche Empore. 1982 wurde der Kohleofen durch eine Gasheizung ersetzt. In den Jahren 2001 und 2002 erfolgte eine Sanierung der äußeren Gebäudehülle. de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dorfkirche_Schenkendorf
