October 22 - Afire in the Cold

Finish edits for Psalm 33 (12 pages total) on a day that definitely doesn't feel like summer, plus videos for History Phases: II. Russia - The Moon Shines and



III. America - Amazing Grace.

October 21 - And Zen What Happened

Edits for page 7 of Psalm 33, and some of The Beatles (a.k.a. The White Album) organized by composer on iTunes (it takes some Wikipedia'ing to sort it all out, including a fascinating account of the 1968 North Indian / Himalayan Foothills sojourn). Quiz 10 for the Theoreticians eventually, with examples drawn from the works of George Gershwin, Kurt Weill, Sergei Prokofiev, and Anton Webern (whoops, forgot to do 12-tone music -- oh well... next week...).


The jump to Marin is under uncertain skies, grading papers at Celia's, doing the requisite errands, and heading north somewhat


circuitously in slightly clearing conditions, to a serendipitous walk from



Petaluma Hill Road



to the



Roberts Road bend



(part of the cross-California endeavor,



now splitting the cismontane remainder to bits north



and



south of here), then another wander homeward, finishing up videos for



Deploration Passacaglias (Op. 43) as XXIII. Bernstein and beginning those for



History Phases (Op. 153) with I. Turkey - Epitaph of Seikilos.
