Jenga for the lost and a wonderland for art

[sovay]

Driving home in dismal rain and traffic, I switched on WHRB and got the theremin episode of a new-to-me program called the Electro-Classical Future, featuring Kalevi Aho's Theremin Concerto (2014) and Howard Shore's Ed Wood Suite (2000). The DJ made a joke about synthesis which she promised to make every single week of the program. I ceased to mind all the red lights.

On the subject of classical music: the Division of the Creative Arts at Brandeis University has started its fundraiser for a permanent endowment in support of the Lydian String Quartet. Please donate! Whatever the rest of the world is doing, we still need art.

Not related to the post, but re. the DW reactor I currently follow and her response to Vengeance on Varos - she liked it even more than I had hoped (so far; part 2 will be next week)! She was visibly blown away by how dark and interesting it was. She loves the device of Arak and Etta the most and she did indeed say she wants to see more of the Governor, because she finds him and his odd position fascinating. I thought she probably would like it & also get it more than the couple of other reactors I've watched, but it is very divisive and you never can tell. So that was nice, and you did say to let you know!
