Little Enough Going On

 Very Nearly a Zappa Title N° 19: The Talk Show Never Stops
Porridger’s Almanack (Breakfast of Ganglions)

“Immediately, why? Will it spoil?”
—“No, but you will. Once you delay, you're lost, believe me.”
The Twilight Zone (“The Chaser”)

... but what there is, let me dutifully report. In Where Does the Time Go?...nine years ago today was my first rehearsal of The Young Lady Holding a Phone in Her Teeth with Kammerwerke.

As to the present: At our inaugural reading, with the Redeemer/First Lutheran (new name t/b/d) choir of Joseph and Mary, there was an entirely reasonable request for a choral score with fewer page turns. Did that today. I mentioned yesterday a possible fresh pair of eyes for the Opus 200, and indeed, the colleague to whom I sent the score and MIDI demo and upon whom I count for the piece’s embassage, has responded with gratifying enthusiasm.
