Here for the classical music posters. Also, Wodehouse, Patrick O'Brian and almost anything else enlightening. Any golf here?

A friend came over for dinner. It was his birthday, so I gave him venison with dauphinoise; cherry cake and custard. We fell to talking about Brahms PC1. This is still *it*. What a mensch Brahms was, listening through this to the man. www.youtube.com/watch?v=_HNB...

Since I'm into classical music I will post my favorite You Tube video on the topic. Although the video quality is a bit lacking, the experience of the entirety is sublime. www.youtube.com/watch?v=UdGt...

Had the supreme pleasure of seeing John Adams conduct at the NY PHIL last night. Wonderful program included Part, Copland, Gabriella Smith (who introduced her piece) and the man himself, Adams, conducting his symphonic work City Noir. Joyous.
