It's great to hear from you, Karl. I hope you continue to improve.

Keep it up.  Who knows, before long you may be ready to play Prokofiev's PC 4!

"You overestimate my power of attraction," he told her. "No, I don't," she replied sharply, "and neither do you".

Karl has written that he has musical ideas for FOUR new works, although he is "not yet back to composing."  Nevertheless, "the gears are turning."

Again, that is an excellent sign!    8)    I guessed that the works might be his Second Symphony, a Clarinet Concerto, Star Trek: The Opera ???  and Hell's Angels:o    the world's first motorcycle ballet!   8)

And the FaceBook fund-raising has cracked $8,000!

That must have been what he was referring to when he said 'the gears are turning'.

You kidding? He's first got to write the symphonic poem Rhyme of the Ancient Mariner which I commissioned for him long time ago.  :)

Oh jeez. I bet that's an albatross around his neck.
