***
A packed hall, and a good time had by all, including performers and composers who we will certainly hear from again soon, including where-would-we-be-without-her
Harriet March Page, and Allan Crossman and
Erling Wold.
Before all this,
make final preparations for the show,
such as a
local shearing,
commuting
through
the
typical
North /
East Bay splendor, and
score reproduction at Berkeley's Copyworld,
before making
the jump
across the water.
