Thursday morning greetings!  The Michigan Men's Glee Club gave a glorious concert last night and I quite enjoyed singing The Victors in a friendly crowd - Go, Blue!

I will go with DR ELMORE's list for the TOD.

I will, too, and add Mendelssohn's ELIJAH.

This is the first morning I've left my bed with no headache, toochache, eyeball ache, or runny nose.  When the alarm rang at 8:00, I lay on my bed, feeling quite lazy, and dozed for nearly an hour, enjoying the breeze, with Annabelle lying next to me and Thatch leaping about and burrowing under the blankets.

Great news, DR Elmore!

So, continuing from yesterday, here's a clip of Jerry Lanning and Phil Silvers from the TV production of DAMN YANKEES!

In FOSSE/VERNON, Lanning is the real life counterpart OF "Doug," Vernon's boy friend.

My favorite Carmina Burana is the recording with June Anderson.  When I was going to Western Washington University, we performed the piece with all the choirs and the orchestra of the university, and several choruses from Bellingham, Washington (where Western is).  It was huge and wonderful!  The soprano was Heidi Lynn Grant, who went on to win the Met Auditions, then married her accompanist and became known as Heidi Grant Murphy.  She was incredible!  Anyway, here's the cover of June Anderson's version:

One thing that we did that the recording with June Anderson did is that we used the German pronunciations of Latin.  So, things like "semper crescis" was pronounced "semper crestsees" instead of the regular "semper creschees."

Must try some of these choral pieces - the Poulenc is coming and I must have the Ormandy Carmina here in the Ormandy box so I'll pull that out and give it a listen, and I'll try the two sequels, too.

Speaking of Fosse/Verdon, I was surprised that everyone seemed to call the playwright Mr. Simon "Neil."  I had understood that his friends called him "Doc."

Like Jane, I've heard of agents chipping in to make a deal fly. I was surprised in this case because there had been multiple offers and it sounds like a very desirable property. It's more likely in a distressed situation, where any deal is better than no deal for the agents.

I have to say that I've seen real estate agents who have not done right by their clients, either through laziness or incompetence and really didn't deserve the full amount of their commission. I had to fire the agent who was selling my dad's house, as she was very lazy and then pressured me to take ridiculously low offers. And, yes, you can fire them, even though you have a contract.
