I saw a bumper sticker with the enticingly ambivalent legend:
“Books you don’t need in a place you can’t find.”
Porridger’s Almanack (Breakfast of Ganglions)
There is nothing manly in being angry.

I hied me in to Boston to hear Aaron’s concert at King’s Chapel today, as always a musical delight. One of the New Lullabies on the program was by a composer, Pasquale Tassone who, it turns out, is a near-ish neighbor. The piece was lovely, indeed, so that is but the start of the conversation. although Aaron will not have the time to look at [His] Uneasy Sleep before his Newport concert on 12 Oct, we talked about the technical issue behind my “problem measure,” and I returned home with a clear idea of the musically satisfactory solution. Before and after my Boston outing, I made good progress on the Opus 200.
Also, 17 years ago today:
worked some more on The Angel Who Bears a Flaming Sword while on the bus. [30 Sep 2008]
