Henning's Headquarters

Dana cautions me that the wait for audio (since it was recorded by Eastman themselves) may be measured in months rather than weeks.

Still catching my breath, but I need both to get back to work on Tempus fungus, and to get practicing so I can play a half hour recital in three weeks.

I sang at FCB this past Sunday morning (Byrd Ave verum corpus & Pärt Da pacem, Domine — yes, both of them a little unusually Christian for a Unitarian service). A very nice e-mail from the director subsequently. Carola asked me about the Cantata (she suggested the text which was the catalyst); told her I have this chamber concerto to knock out first.

Seeing Jaya reminded me that I do want to follow up on Alistair's suggestion of a piece for two harpsichords . . . .

Maybe I will send them a loaf of my famous pumpkin bread as a small bakhshish to get them going!   0:)

Wow!  Still just a youngster!   

Happy Birthday! 

And stay away from the prune whip!

Now what was I watching last week, in which poisoned prunes figured . . . ?

[Luke]

Hey, Karl! Had no idea! Happy Birthday! 

[Sergeant Rock]

I turn 50 today, and I am just having the greatest day!

Happy Birthday, Karl! Glad you're enjoying the day. But you know, this is the last birthday you'll want to celebrate... It's all downhill from here

Happy b-day Karl!  Listen to some Stravinsky, Shostakovich and enjoy some hot tea.

Happy Birthday, Karl! I turned 46 today, as it happens.

Happy belated birthday, Lee!

Thanks, Davey!  Excellent advice . . . though in the event, I wound up grooving to the Liszt Rapsodies hongroises : )

[karlhenning]

Seems I left Tempus fungus untended long enough, it's almost grown true to its name.  And I need to get practicing clarinet, too.

A little further progress . . . .

[karlhenning]

Dana has sent sound files of the première of the Opus 102! But I don't think I can listen to them without conversion. The game is afoot!

Hi Karl, I've been so immersed in work that I missed this--belated Happy Half-Century!  Now your life can truly begin.  0:)  (Oh wait, that was 40...)

Thanks, Bruce! Nice to see you at least momentarily de-immured : )
