Spring 2014

The new year finds me back in Miami hard at work during tax season. April 14th was the worst with a twelve hour day. Enrolled in Chamber Music class at the community college so I can attempt to play the cello after a year hiatus.  Took in a couple of concerts.  One was 3/29/14 Symphonic Indulgence by NWS -- Glinka Overture to Ruslan and Ludmilla, Rachmaninoff Concerto #2 in Cm for Piano and Orchestra, op. 18, Albeniz Suite Espoanola, Respighi Pines of Rome--a lot of music for free.  The other was a MDC production of Gilbert and Sullivan's the Mikado, re-imagined with some Miami political jokes and white wigs and painted faces Japanesey style.  Interesting but I guess I need to see a more traditional version for comparison.  Looking forward to going back up north.  Going to spend our anniversary in St. Augustine as Earl has never been there.
