Summing up my Memorial Day weekend:

  • Great dinner and conversations with my dear friend M
  • New additions to my CD collection - John Adams' Naive and Sentimental Music, Gustav Mahler's Das Lied von der Erde, Prokofiev's Peter and the Wolf conducted by Kent Nagano and narrated by Patrick Stewart
  • Terry Riley organ recital at Walt Disney Concert Hall
  • A lengthy, late night conversation over wine and tapas with a friend and her child prodigy husband about my new short story idea and more
  • Another great dinner and conversation with some friends and a retired musicology professor who had personal acquaintance with Jascha Heifetz and once taught Deborah Voigt
  • A phone call affirming new...possibilities
