Another Bernstein
"What's that, Lassie? You say Timmy's in the well? Quick, girl! Go get the medievalist!"
Yesterday our preacher treated us to this very, very, very inspirational worship video.
It's the future of air travel! From 1974!
Twice now lately, I've read something online about our need for a few classical artists who are are household names -- i.e., we need a new Bernstein. I'm not interested right now in discussing the extent to which that is true. What struck me is that most of the suggested candidates for this role were people I didn't recognize. (Okay, I know Dawn Upshaw's work well; the others seemed only vaguely familiar.) Here I am, supposedly in the thick of the music word, and I don't know what's going on. What's worse, my biggest problem is not my ignorance, but my failure to feel properly bad about it. I need serious help.

Yeah, Elmer was great. I don't know which I love more, The Great Escape or The Magnificent Seven.
Hunh? Not Elmer? The other one, you say?
What other one?
