Danke Michael & Nikolaus!

Not much of a programme last night, out for an early dinner though ... but planning on catching some movies with (young) Claudia Cardinale tonight and tomorrow, hearing Regula Mühlemann and the Basler Kammerorchester (conducted by Umberto Benedetti Michelangeli, a nephew of Arturo) on Sunday, and then on Monday catching the new Jelinek play at the local theatre ...

Thank you all!

@brownie was looking at your wonderful Cecil Taylor Unit photos on Jan Ström's Lyons site again lately :tup:tup:tup 

@Daniel A The past couple of years were really busy with concerts ... I started checking out classical music in concert about two years ago and am taking immense pleasure out of it. 2-3 concerts a week (including an opera once every 2-3 weeks, and plenty o'jazz as well) weren't too rare. I am also still sometimes travelling to other places, some nearby (Basel, Lucerne), others further away (Novara, Mulhouse, most recently the festival in St. Johann ... and coming up the Chicago/London Underground in Padova), combining vacation with a bit of live music.

So yeah, lots of stuff going on ... and I guess it's what keeps me goin', though I've started a new job in December at the archives of the city of Zurich, and that is a big help, too--a step in the right direction, out of the (fringes) of the global financial world into an area that combines my professional skills and expertise (records and information management, as they call it) with my academic background as a historian ...

So things are looking really good around here, I'm happy to report :)

Yet obviously, all of these activities (and a trip to India in between jobs, last October/November--I posted some snapshots) keep me from spening my used-to-be regular amount of time on music sites.
