Overnight, hear tell of interesting prospects, meriting update of various materials --
so,
after
the
requisite
morning commute and weekly
Theoretical Quiz (examples for this the sixth keyed to baroquish Monteverdi, Gesualdo [arguably a stretch], Schutz, Purcell, Vivaldi, and J.S. Bach),
make
the
typical
Marin transit (picking up current and back issues of the Journal from the printer enroute)
with a
twist: first down to
Westminister Presbyterian Church,
happily re-encountering Barbara Rowe, who from her old position as Lay Pastor is now the official clergiate head, with her charming daughter (who played Jesus back in Stephen Schwartz's Godspell and/or Andre Lloyd Webber's epinonimous Superstar) now Professor of Geology at McGill University in sometimes iceboxy Montreal.
After
a
nice
visit,
head
southwest
to
Mount Tamalpais United Methodist Church, of concert-presenting fame, among other qualities (memories including what was among the earliest reviews for 20th-Century Music, as well as an impressive Russian telling of Igor Stravinsky's Histoire du Soldat).
Meet up with the friendly Office Manager,
revisiting the lovely sanctuary and other interesting spots,
then bop north through Larkspur
and
Ross to check the post box, and Princeton has re-subscribed to the Journal.
From
here,
time
to
navigate
a
hasty
retreat
through
Sonoma
and
Solano
homeward,
or
at
least
as
quick
as
active
traffic
will
allow,
via
various
scenic
strategems,
for dinner and a movie with Harriet, coterminous with typical artistic tasks:
Score-study Varese's Octandre, pages 19-20,
Second-page pdf for Lot in Life
Finish the detail edit of The Decameron - Second Day: VII (30 pages total)
Compose a fourth page of Decameron - Third Day: I
