March 27 - Lotta Day and Night Music
Finish the orchestration of King David: XV. Feat Song and begin that of
XVI. Before the Arc (The Death of Abner) before careening
beyond the Blue Ridge of the Vaca Mountains, past the
greening, almost ominous
Sulfur Springs and
amusement structures,
back towards Mt. Tamalpais in Marin, picking up the car, dealing with complicated banking problems (perhaps in homage to
Richard Brautigan),
meeting up with sarodist
Lisa Moscow (she's at last.fm) and friend serendipidously (it always pays to be incredibly polite),
flying over the Richmond Bridge past
Red Rock Island and a distant
San Francisco,
the palmy environs of Claremont Hotel and
recovering
Berkeley-Oakland,
Sibley and
Shakespeare Hills,
back to Pleasant Hill Boulevard in Lafayette, for another stroll below fan palms
and stone pines on a route between St. Mary's and Diablo Valley, whereupon it's time to provisionally record the just-orchestrated music above.
