Well, you've read the notes, the notes were up someone's something, and now it is time for you to post until the proverbial cows come home.

I was just about to reply to your post about it sounding like my co-workers might be travelling. I don't think anyone is travelling. I'm pretty sure that most people are just taking time off. One person has two young kids at home, so I know that she just wants to have a long weekend.

Listening to Puccini's Le Villi. Funny - sounds positively old-fashioned compared to Schreker's, but lovely - not my favorite Puccini but it's Renata Scotto and Placido Domingo, with Maazel conducting.

I am very pleased they are staying home.

Annabelle is not shaking this current respiratory agony, even though I'm giving her lysine in every meal. I'm not panicking yet, but I am a bit concerned.

Stella has been an angelthe last couple of days. This really scares me. I think she's planning a coup.

I've had an offer to work on a Kern score. The money's very poor, but I could use it and I'd rather work than be idle.

One might say that bk has a phlegm-flam problem.

I just added Der Ferne Klang to my Amazon shopping cart. I don't believe that I have ever heard a note of Schreker, and I find it fascinating that Alban Berg prepared the published vocal score. Georges Bizet prepared the published vocal score of Faust for Gounod, as I recall.

DR George - thanks very much for the mini-tutorial last night!

BK, have you looked into Weinberger's Schwanda?

DR John G. - Touché!

I need to rally all of my physical resources and make some attempt to get this apartment back into a semblance of sane living condition.

Whenever I have to sing the text of the Magnificat in German, I always have to stifle my giggles when I get to the grosse Dinge.

Not because it's dirty, but because it sounds dirty.

And that's right up my proverbial alley.

So to speak.

As former DR Jeffrey pointed out on FB yesterday, the curious tag line on the JAY email alerting of the shipment of the Anyone Can Whistle set:
