7/4

I used to be in town more, but I've lived thirty minutes from the Holland Tunnel for 18 years.

That's Allen's trip - internet bully, picking on the crippled and elderly. I broke both my elbows in Aug '09, we found out after a bone density scan that I had some diet problems. I really started playing again seriously last Thanksgiving and then only when I have time. The day job is very demanding. I'll be part of something here in NJ in the very near future though, stay tuned.

Sounds like she thinks you're out of touch. Very perceptive!

I've been on the Saturn list for years until I had email problems about a year ago. I've even met the woman at a raga concert, but she probably doesn't remember me.

No kidding.

Sounds like Allen!

Gary Moore fans rage at Britain's Sun tabloid for cause of death speculation. I thought the original Sun story was highly speculative. Bah!

Lowes disturbing behavior.

and his version of Wishing Well.

only 58.

I'll have to check out another performance of the Debussy/Ravel qts., I'm pretty familiar with this one now.

Absolutely! It's always paired with Ravels only string qt. I have the performance by the Emerson Qt. I should dig into Prokofiev. I like his piano music that I've been exposed to.

Thanks Brownie! I always wondered what a crepuscule was.

bring back the CD!

opps...that didn't work out.

My Mother would never let me have anything like that in the house.

NY Times obit: more intensely rational and for many listeners impenetrably abstruse...my kind of music.

Yeah...there's something about the way it sounds that just makes sense. Like Bach, a solidly constructed building.

I bought this recently to find out what these pieces sound like: Bela Bartok – The Piano Concertos (Pierre Boulez) (2005) expecting this to be exciting, I liked it the first time I heard it.
