Well, you've read the notes, the notes lacked but then had snazzle and sniz, and now it is time for you to post until the snazzle and sniz cows come home.

And the word of the day is: SOLANDER!

Well, rehearsal last night went really well. We got through the show in about 2 1/2 hours (which is a long time, but it'll tighten up) and I left at about 11:30. Tomorrow is our last rehearsal without an audience. Wednesday is our invited final dress and then we open on Thursday! I'm glad it'll finally be up on its feet and running.

And about the sent messages check box thing from yesterday...I now realize that I'd never noticed that before because it must have always been checked. I've always had my messages to into my sent items folder.

Good morning.

TOD: I like O Holy Night, Silent Night, and Sleigh Ride (the orchestra piece, not with the words).

Good morning, all! The temperatures have dropped and we're back to the 30s after several days in the 50s and 60s. I'm ready for some cold, now that my bed's been winterized, although I admit I prefer going to therapy in shorts rather than wearing them under my trousers: too much layering.

So, I'm still on the Fandangos and their loooooong dance, If that full score weren't such a mess, I would be finished. At noon, I will meet Joshie at the Lincoln Center library and we will compare the scores we have with Ted Royal's original orchestrations.

BK, I saw at least two of my favorite songs on your program: "Winter Was Warm," which I have loved since the first broadcast of "Mr Magoo's Christmas Carol," and "Penny By Penny," which I scored for UNSUNG MUSICALS III.

This weekend I listened to the two sets of the Billboard Christmas hits: "Grandna Got Run Over By A Reindeer" still makes me laugh, but I will never like that moronic "Little Drummer Boy."

I also love the Andrews Sisters' charming "I'd Like To Hitch A Ride with Santa Claus."

Good morning, all.

DR Elmore, sounds like a fascinating meeting at the library today.

Sniz? SNIZ??

singdaw · « **Reply #17 on:** December 02, 2014, 05:32:22 AM »

I looked at DR vixmom's holiday to-do list from last night, and decided that if I never slept between now and Dec 25th, I could accomplish approximately half of it.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #18 on:** December 02, 2014, 05:35:03 AM »

Oh, I dunno. If she were also hand-copying all of Mozart's scores, then I might have been more impressed.

FJL · « **Reply #19 on:** December 02, 2014, 05:37:28 AM »

I know it's not strictly the TOD, but "the Man With the Bag" is high on my listening list right now

Is that old enough to count as traditional holiday music?

bk · « **Reply #21 on:** December 02, 2014, 05:42:32 AM »

I like the Rodgers and Hammerstein traditional song How Do You Solve an Ave Like Maria.

I have slept for two and a half hours. At some point about fifteen minutes ago I woke up from a weird dream in which I swallowed wrong - and I'd swallowed wrong so I've been trying to cough it out and then I'll go back to bed.

Until reading today's notes, I had never heard (nor heard OF) this song. Love it!

Here's another piece (classical, this time) that I had never heard until today.

"I swallowed wrong" --- a complaint often heard in San Juan Capistrano.

Yesterday DR Jane asked re: Maggie Stiefvater's new book

Quote

Thanks. Does the series end with book 3? If so do you suggest I finish reading them?

No there is a book four that is supposed to be the final book in the series.

I don't know how much you liked book one. All the books are similar (multiple 3rd person narrators with very complicated terminology). I enjoyed book 3. But found it took a lot of concentration. Many of the books I read are much easier reads. I find the story extremely interesting (especially the last 100 pages in book 3).

Re: the new Annie movie.

i will see it when it comes out on dvd.

I feel like for a remake you need to have an Annie who is a star. Not necessarily a name although that would have been good. But just someone who has huge star quality.

The Macy's number was horrible. The girl did not stand out at all.

But the Dancing With the Stars number was quite good. I am curious if that was completely different choreography from what is in the movie. Because I really enjoyed that choreography.
