May 20 - Lining Out


Dashing through the early morning


blue and gray,


over the


Sulfur


Springs


Mountains and


Napa River Bridge to the


Crestwood


Open


Space


again


for


the


weekly


rendezvous


with


Crystal and Stanley, there are changes afoot and poignant issues at hand, followed by errands, including picking up the belated January 2011 issue of 21st-Century Music at the printers,


before heading back for the afternoon's activities, including:

Finishing Psalm 56 (Op. 187, No. 16) (transcribing King David: XIII from Sibelius to Encore -- 6 pages total)
Creating a pdf of Four Processions (Op. 12): II
Transferring The Creation (Op. 93) from PC to Mac
Uploading a 14th clip to the ongoing Camino Real: Block 9 (Op. 110)


Late afternoon blitz to the library for the week's video fix for Harriet, including The Roman Spring of Mrs. Stone (Tennessee Williams, 1950 / 1961)


A Room with a View (E.M. Forster, 1904 / 2007),


San Francisco (1936),


The Scarlet Empress (1934), and


The Sea of Grass (1947).


In the evening,


off


again,


now


to Vallejo


for


Bay


Area


Stage's


production


of


Andrew


Lloyd


Webber's


Jesus 


Christ 


Superstar -- a fine production, with respectable singing, an intriguing electronic score, and impressive sets.
