I'm glad you enjoyed the concert but sorry that the music stand muffled the sound. He should have known better. Ah, I should have known better than to sit on that side. It was fun distracting the German pianist, though. :) People sometimes wonder how I can stand living in the Washington DC area with its traffic jams, pollution, etc. There are compensations. Last year I heard performances by Hilary Hahn (twice), Itzhak Perlman, Midori, and a Chinese violinist playing a Strad called Lady Tennant. This season, I will hear Itzhak Perlman, Pinchas Zukerman, Gil Shaham, and Yo Yo Ma. Ma will play some of the Bach works for unaccompanied cello. I'm not bragging; I am appreciating the opportunities I have here. Pollution is relative. Walking on snow can be like walking on the contents of someone's garbage can that fell over. The air? It's just blank. Give me that grey haze in the distance and the tart smell of diesel exahust. Smells like Yo Ma Ma, Itzhak Perlman, Pinchas Zukerman. Ha. I always write Yo Ma Ma. ... keep Manhattan, just give me that countryside. :) Smells like yo mama yo yo ma ho, its violin dot co She bewitched me using the devil's instrument!
