Pdf of Merton Songs 41 and composition re The Decameron 50 and page 9 Psalm 90 before making the way to Diablo Valley College, rendezvousing with the Theoreticians for short videos and Dictation / Keyboard-Solfege / Board Harmony on Scott Joplin's The Entertainer, plus Whole Tone Scales in C and Db; Gb and F# Major; and Bb and Eb Minor.
Linger in the lab all afternoon (first time seemingly since towards the beginning of last semester) to lay the groundwork for recording Symphony No. 3 ("Recycled"): I with the Tritone Orchestra (bottom line seems to be that while Garrishtone has better individual instruments, particularly for chamber music, the old standby allows for consistent control of mix), breaking with Doug briefly for coffee.
