Always an honor (honour!) to be remembered by the great magazines of opera. I have an opera for you out there. A world premiere of something hiding since 1959. More to follow. Guess! Today. 79. A miracle of modern medicine. Here we go: the 80th journey around the sun has begun!

Today. 79. A miracle of modern medicine. Here we go: the 80th journey around the sun has begun! One opera restoration completed; a new book for W. W. Norton & Company is 75% written (w/ John McWhorter) and concerts in Mexico, London and Paris later this year. Today. 79. A miracle.

Oh, yes. And the warmth of that sound. So happy to dance with you again, at least in my studio .

Two of my favorite friends and glorious human beings making music together. Just overwhelming.

I’m still stunned by last night’s terrible news. Ken Page died suddenly. He was the one and only Oggie Boogie Man. He was simply one of the best, most generous souls I know. Full of life and overflowing with joy. Talented and then some. Ken, my friend, you will be deeply missed.

Such sadness today! Ken would sing for 2 minutes and simply take over! Audiences adored him as did I. RIP dear one. Hollywood Bowl Danny Elfman

#KenPage was one of a kind. Bigger than life, his open heart was a lightning bolt to every audience, whether Hollywood Bowl, Tokyo, London, Paris ... Irreplaceable. Yale in Hollywood Jon Burlingame The Hollywood Reporter

Wonderful! I knew MTT when he was Mike from LA during the summer of 1966 when he was playing Parsifal rehearsals at Bayreuth! This is a well-deserved honor (honour).

No one better! Congratulations Christina. Well done!

Perhaps my favorite photo of #KenPage with Danny Elfman and me. Comfort and joy after a performance in Paris.

The KORNGOLD family has linked my performance w EWK’s archival recording which has always been my guide. This is a tremendous honor for me.

Are you ready? We performed it at Woodland Junior High and I won the student design competition! That was May 1, 1959. My entrance at the Spy rivaled Scarpia’s.

And just how would EWK have completed Turandot has always occupied my “what if” lists.

You can drive us crazy when the sound is not in synch w the image. Yike!

On s'installe. Ce soir, 5500 personnes pour acclamer Danny Elfman avec l'Orchestre Colonne, sous la direction de @MauceriJ1 ♪

Yes indeed! Paris once again.

Reunited with John Mauceri after he did an incredible concert with Danny Elfman I couldn’t have realised my Korngold album without his help and am so grateful to him!

First day of winter in New York City and even the garbage and the bikes are celebrating.

Thank you The New York Times for explaining why the world is where it is. NB: Just a touch—a drizzle— of Neanderthal does the trick. BTW, Merry Christmas from Sparky and me. Perhaps joy and gratitude are antidotes for that "trace" we all share.

On this Valentine’s Day, permit me to share a half hour of love with you. John youtube.com/watch?v=9lJEIW….
