George, what did you think of the play itself?  I have never heard of it before.

I'd never heard of it, either.  It's by the author of Same Time, Next Year, which I have heard of.  The show itself was pretty good.  It's set in England, but no one used accents.  It's about an older author with an adult son and the author's younger (but older than the son) second wife.  A young woman comes to their house and claims to have had an affair with the author, which the author denies.  She wants money from them to emigrate to Canada, which they refuse, then we find out that she kills herself (but her body is never found) and the author is accused of the crime.  There are a couple of twists that I and most of the audience did NOT see coming.  It's a good show, but not a great execution.

Thanks, Jrand. 

I'd been drafting it to the tune of A Bushel and a Peck, but got a little lost, so "poem" sounds about right.  :)

"Peck" of course because I had the play George did last year (the improbable peck of plays) on my mind.

So, today I will continue to work on my choral commission.  I spent the afternoon yesterday looking over the song to be arranged, sketching some ideas, and laying out the entire chart.  I still have to determine what voice parts will take the melody and determine the other chorus parts and their progressions.

I've been relaxing, the helper came by for invoices, and of course I've been listening to music.  Whilst trying to find a good recording of Arthur Butterworth's first symphony, I found a disc that also included a symphony by a Brit woman named Ruth Gipps - I'm always very interested in female classical composers of the 20th century, so I searched her on You Tube and found four of her symphonies - I found one of those sites that converts you tube stuff to mp3 and got them into iTunes - and they're really great, and a couple are better than great.  It was not easy for women composers of that era, and I'm always amazed by how good they are and how hard it must have been.  Now I'm back to Japanese symphonic works - listening to Fumiyo Hayasaka right now - a wonderful composer and who did several classic film scores for Mr. Kurosawa including Seven Samurai and Rashomon.

It was a nearly perfect 12-hour drive, but for the last two hours in which I had to endure the back side of the rain, and traffic like you wouldn't believe.  To offer one example, the Tappan Zee Bridge was backed up at least five miles.  I think it was probably about normal for a Sunday evening -- people coming home from their weekends everywhere.  (Note to self...)

Today Wae-Ling Goldstein and I took a drive up to Oak Creek Canyon so she could see what was left of the autumn leaves. Of course, she fell into the creek up to her waist. Luckily I had tossed some long pants in the trunk of the car in case it was cold there. Her boots and socks were drenched, so that was the end of walking about.

I drove over to the town of Jerome, which is a ghost town teetering on the mountain cliffs. I had always wanted to take her there, but we never got around to it. We just drove through the winding switchbacks of the town.

Not unless I'm in a show, or I have a good Halloween costume...which I usually don't.

A few years ago, I dressed up in all black and wore the Brain that was built for TAO's production of BK's The Brain From Planet X.  It was pretty popular. :D

The car salesman probably thought I was really weird.  Every time he would show me a feature on the car, I would say, "Cool" or "That is so cool."

I hardly ever use that word in conversation.

Sometimes people do, and a few times in the past we've had costume party potlucks, but not this year.

I think it is hard to do potlucks on Monday.  Too many people forget their pots.

We're actually having an election day potatoe [sic] spud-fest.  Back when Dan Quayle made the spelling mistake, a former library employee used to get potatoes from eastern Washington and we had our first spud-fest in 1992.  For the presidential election years, we've had one every four years since then.
