Watching "My Big Fat Greek Wedding, 2." It's kind of slow-moving so far.

Back from a fun rehearsal - yet another cast member was out trying to rid herself of a cold, but we still ran it.

Had a chicken Caesar wrap and then attended a partay at Doug Haverty's for about twenty minutes.

And now I am home and listening to music and relaxing.

Evening all.

Quite frankly, I'm tired and glad to be around friends who aren't going to ask me what I want in a man, how many kids do I have/want and what do I want out of life.

Oy and vey!!

I hope everyone else had a nice wonder filled day.

I finished "The Lusty Month of May" and the final round of songs came in. I'm ready to crash.

This is not funny, DR Jane.

Unless you have a good sense of humor which I know you do

Home from City Center with "The Lusty Month of May" to score today. Back with Joshie in the AM.

Sadly, my May wasn't that lusty.

Good evening.

The thunder is rolling in. I do hope we get some rain.

This afternoon we saw a local theater's production of "Beehive."

I did not need to remove a cell phone from the person next to me; she actually slept through the whole show.

It was very loud; I don't know how she managed to do that.

Grilled New York strip steaks from Costco tonight. That meat is just spectacular. Hadn't done that in ages and it just put a smile on everyone's face.

A baby has been born on A Place to Call Home. I may get to watch two episodes tonight. Moving steadily toward the conclusion of this season.

That's a revue I really enjoy. I saw it back in the day with Carolee Carmello in it.

Hi, Danise. How are you enjoying the evening?

Page four? Really?

Jumping around, composer-wise. First another Simon Rattle Sibelius - despite the rhapsodic "reviews" as I feared it's pretty much, for me, one big bore from start to finish - definitely in the sale pile. But for every complete Sibelius symphonies there are at least a few "reviewers" for whom it is THE BEST.

Then the Mahler 9th with Karel Ancerl conducting. After hearing Mr. Ancerl's Shostakovich 1, 5, and 10 I knew I'd found a conductor I absolutely loved - brilliant performances in stunning sound from the Supraphon label. I have the Ancerl Shostakovich 7 on the way and I can't imagine I won't love it. His Mahler 9th was every bit as good if not better than Bernstein - wonderful sound, fantastic conducting, a great band - just loved it.

Then I felt like hearing the Khachaturian Violin Concerto, which always makes me happy. I followed that with Karel Ancerl's Stravinsky Violin Concerto - don't think I'd heard it before, and again the conducting and sound were brilliant and the piece is absolutely delightful.

bk · « **Reply #116 on:** May 28, 2017, 08:37:14 PM »

Then I moved back to Shostakovich - this time The Limpid Stream ballet music - wonderful stuff. I also have The Bolt and The Golden Age complete ballets, too, and am looking forward to them very much. I've almost caught up on getting everything into iTunes.

She must have been very tired 😀
