***
Well,
wow,
what
a
day...
heading
off
early
on
the
margins
of clouds and sunlight,
for the twice-weekly rendezvous with the Theoreticians, now Richard Rodgers's The Sound of Music: Do-Re-Mi, as Dictation / Keyboard-Solfege / Board Harmony,
followed by more excellent
Student Compositions of Round II.
After,
a
culinary-
social
adventure,
ultimately
northeast,
back
homeward
for
paper-grading;
then
out
again
to the evening class, ending up with the wonders of 20th-Century I for Quiz 9.
Late, complete piano-vocal and
visual libretto to
Alma Maria Schindler Mahler Gropius Werfel, Op. 232: LII. 1930 - Anna Mahler / Paul von Zsolnay (Anna's Third Marriage), and compose
Variations on the Romanesca, Op. 251: LXII. Thelonius Monk (1917-1982) - Misterioso (1948),
over impressive videos. High 69 again, 65th day of spring...
