It just looks like a mess of paper, but.. while I was in Montreal Josh Dolgin (Socalled) invited me to his office at McGill to look at the boxes of Yiddish choral music which were discarded after the sale of the former Arbeter Ring (Workers Circle) building. It's about 3 big boxes with many duplicates so he's still trying to match parts together and make sense of what is in there.

Just watched the New Horizons Symphony production of Carl Orff's "Carmina Burana".

One highlight was conductor Stephanie Reyes ACING the first half, easily the best direction I've ever heard of this music. Second half was also strong.

Another highlight was the Coro Infantile Saleciano de Juárez, a young girl's choir from south of the border, coming in and singing second half.

The standing ovation just didn't stop.

Tomorrow's the big day: the world premiere of NOW WE ARE EARTH at Opera Ballet Vlaanderen. But not before tonight's dress rehearsal.

We'd like to give special thanks to the members of our Antwerp city choir, who have been rehearsing with the other performers for months. Thank you all for your hard work, and for being the blueprint for all the different city choirs to come on our 2025 tour. We couldn't have done it without you all.

Break a leg!
