Reading about Sibelius (Jean, not software) and struggling to reconcile the material with 80 degrees and sunshine. Only one way to appropriately remedy this: 🍸I honor the man in so many ways.

2200+ in rapt silence (very little coughing) for an all-Ligeti Concerto (pno, horn, cello, violin) performance by Ensemble intercontemporain . All commitment and excellence - they eat this stuff for breakfast. Honest question: Could this happen anywhere else on earth?

Yet another absolutely towering performance by Kavakos. Dutilleux with @RCOamsterdam + Myung Whun Chung. B7 was smokin too.

Catching up on a stack of BBC Music Magazine - inspired (thx to excellent review by Jessica Duchen ✍️🎶) to listen to recent Korngold Symph rec by John Wilson + Sinfonia of London - fantastic playing! Bravo. Much love for EWK (not the airport), but have struggled w Symph. Getting there.

how is it that I somehow missed Britten’s Prince of the Pagodas back when I had a Spring Symph discovery moment 20 years ago?? incredible music. Feel like someone should have given me a good shake and said Listen to This
