Well, you've read the notes, the notes had the music and the night, and now it is time for you to post until the cows come home - they're currently singing The MOOsic of the Night.

Wow I keep getting first post!

Sergio will come to County Center today to talk with the permit dept and I will have to go down to give them the letter turning the open permits over to him.

We didn't have that meeting yesterday that I was dreading so it might be today. Ugh.

Vibes to all.  Pain free vibes to dear TCB.  Hoping all Moms are doing well.

Laters all and have a very nice day!

TOD: I have no idea what the first music I was  exposed to would be, other than I was taken to "Lady and the Tramp" when I was about six weeks old and I'm sure I heard hymns from then on, too. But the first music I really remember was the score to "Mary Poppins" which I first heard when I was about 3 years old. Those Sherman Brothers get the credit.

Good morning, all! It's seems to be a nice day in NYC. I slept rather well, with one peculiar dream involving my friend Leigh Beery, aka Mrs Jonathan Tunick, a drive, a pie, and a 2nd floor balcony needing guard rails. I think Joshie and Jonathan were in the dream as well, and I have a memory of Goldman Park in Middletown, OH. Oy!

The laundry is in the washers, and in about 10 minutes it goes into the dryers. Following that, I am off to City Center to go over the vocal score fixes for DEAREST ENEMY. That's pretty much my day.

I was reading by the age of four, perhaps earlier, thanks to my mother, grandmother, and aunts reading to me daily while we lived at my grandmother's house, and the family parlor game was having me select 78's from the record collection. My favorite was Khatchaturian's "Sabre Dance," recorded by the Boston Pops, but I must blame this game for my attachment to popular songs of the 1940s.

Morning.

It rained and flooded the parking lot where I work.   And hail.   Fun stuff when you are inside.

Thursday morning greetings!  My mother has an appointment with a chiropractor today who I'm afraid won't be the miracle worker she wants her to be.  Because I'm providing transportation and moral support, I will be E & T most of the midday.

Chiropractor vibes for the mother of DR GINNY.

Great to hear the MR BK's dental visit went well.

TOD:

I liked to listen to the radio when I was small...country music or popular music.  Then I heard "See You Later Alligator" - which struck me as the funniest thing I had ever heard in my life.....so I sang that for a long time.

Elvis Presley......and some song about a guy named Jimmy who died.....around the time James Dean died....I had just turned 5 when that happened.

Classical music - Tchaikovsky's First Piano Concerto as played by Van Cliburn on the Ed Sullivan Show and the Steve Allen Show.....

And then the vocal groups like The Four Aces and movie music!!!

My sister is almost 10 years older than I, so she was a teenager when I was becoming aware of my musical surroundings.  She was a big Pat Boone fan and she loved (loves) musicals.  The first music I remember asking her to play for me was her 45rpm set of the OKLAHOMA! soundtrack, which I requested upon my return from the hospital without my tonsils and adenoids.

Speaking of my sister and music, she and my niece went to a Barry Manilow concert last night in Illinois.  Wish I could have been there with them!

Time to head down to City Center. The laundry is put away, I've accomplished all the business I can take care of this morning here, so let's hope the vocal score goes well.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Vibes for one and all today! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

My eldest sister is almost 12 years older than I (something I try to remind her of as much as possible), and it's due to her that I love a lot of the music I do today, especially Sergio Mendes, whose first three Brasil '66 albums she brought home from college when I was a kid, and I just fell flat out in love with them.

BTW, there's a rather interesting trivia bit with regard to IT'S ALL IN THE GAME, dealing with American politics.  Does anyone know (without cheating)?  :)

I found it out years ago when I arranged the tune for my Pops Choir and was doing research.

I am super happy. I just received confirmation that i got approved to review the netgalley book I was really wanting to read. I had already got rejected for the other two i asked for. But this is the one i wanted to read the most. IT's a new dystopian book called The Glimpse by Claire Merle.
