It was thrilling to see my brilliant husband, guitarist @DWRCorr, play a full recital, capped off with his new arrangement of 'Forgotten Dreams,' at the Leroy Anderson House: a midcentury modern dream house furnished just as the Maestro left it in 1975: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leroy_….

@peeweeherman We haven’t released PEE-WEE’S BIG ADVENTURE or it would be at the top of the heap! Also, hi!

1) Back from 2 weeks in Norway and a trip that now seems like a dream. The country's arts and culture is as inspiring as its magnificent landscapes. Here is a thread of highlights from the travels @DWRCorr and I had through Oslo, Bergen, Rosendal, Skien, Kongsberg and Kragerø...

The gorgeous acoustics and intimate space of @NationalSawdust provided an ideal venue for @SondreLerche’s exquisite and varied set of sunlit nocturnes, rollicking showstoppers and droll Romantic ballads, many from ‘Avatars of Love.’ A thrill to be there with @DWRCorr.

‘I often found meaning and beauty in the ordinary...Every face tells a story.’ So proud of my mother, Jean Shapiro Cantu, for this stunning @NatGeoEducation visual essay about reconnecting with her 1970s New York photography: blog.education.nationalgeogr….

Bream's theatrical connection, playing upon his command of the lute: his many performances with Dame Peggy Ashcroft, and their 1989 Shakespeare-meets-Dowland RCA album, 'Two Loves: A Sequence of Poetry and Music.'

The taverns are fair full of gadabouts making merry this eve. And though I may press my face against the window like an urchin at a confectioner’s, I am tempted not by the sweetmeats within. A dram in exchange for the pox is an ill bargain indeed.

Airport security in Zurich: “What were you doing in Europe?” Me: “I performed a concert last night” Her: “What did you play?” Me: “Beethoven Violin Concerto” Her: *casual tone* “Which one?” Me: ...There’s only one- Her: “Oh very good sir. You pass.”

‘Sheltered’ @TheaterJ is a deft, absorbing WWII-set play: @alix_sobler masterfully mixes 1940s genre influences (Preston Sturges screwball meets Hellman-esque moral drama) to explore resonant themes of Jewish identity, anti-Semitism & hypocrisy about who gets to ‘play’ American.

We did it! Or more accurately, YOU DID IT! And if we sound incredulous, it’s because we never expected to be able to make this announcement – but New Sounds will remain at home, on WNYC-FM, and at bit.ly/2MBc0rj. Here’s the “official” word going out to our members today:

All those who believe it’s tradition to stay silent between movements of a symphony, take note: this music director in 1931 opposed the practice.
Coda: An interesting letter dated 10/31/31 that I stumbled over last week doing research re: @DetroitSymphony. It's from DSO music director Ossip Gabrilowitsch to a concertgoer. Note his vigorous defense of applause between movements, (starting in 3rd graf). cc: @classicalbeat
