Leander Club, founded in 1818, is one of the oldest rowing clubs in the world. It is based in Remenham in the English county of Berkshire, adjoining Henley-on-Thames. Only three other surviving clubs (two from the Oxford colleges) were founded prior to Leander: Brasenose College Boat Club and Jesus College Boat Club (the two competing in a Head race in 1815) and Westminster School Boat Club, founded in 1813.

8.35 min. | 5.0 user rating		 Hoy me he enterado, releyendo el fabuloso libro de Ian MacDonald titulado "Revolución en la mente", de que un músico español participó en el mítico disco de los Beatles "Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band". José Luis García Asensio tenía 23 años cuando (presumiblemente Paul McCartney y Mike Leander) le encargaron que tocase el violín, al frente de otros tres violinistas, en una preciosa sección de cuerdas para el tema "She's Leaving Home", el mejor del disco junto con "A Day In The Life" para MacDonald. Posteriormente, García Asensio fue durante muchos años el director de la English Chamber Orchestra. Fue muy amigo de Daniel Barenboim y de su esposa Jacqueline du Pré. Sólo encontré estas dos fotos de García Asensio en la red. Son del día de marzo de 2008 en el que, en silla de ruedas, recibía una condecoración de mano del embajador de España en Londres. * Aquí en YouTube, al parecer es José Luis García Asensio el violinista con gafas de pasta negra que acompaña a Pinkas Zukerman en el vídeo "Pinkas Zukerman - Here To Make Music (Pt 5)". * Si no recuerdo mal, en los años 80 una colección de música clásica de Salvat regalaba una cinta con un bello recital de canciones a cargo de Josep Carreras. Mi favorita era "El último romántico". En los diversos temas, Carreras estaba acompañado por la Academia de Saint Martin in the Fields dirigida por Antoni Ros Marbá o por la English Chamber Orchestra dirigida por este maestro, José Luis García Asensio.
