radios and sinatra
hey everyone.
i just wanted to tell everyone that i heard *the genius of water* on the
radio today! i was amazed. it's not over the rhine is played every day on
the radio around here. of course, i wish they had chosen a different song
for our listening pleasure, *but* i was so excited to hear them on my radio
that i i can forgive them that slight overlook.
anyway, the real purpose of this e-mail. i sing with the pittsburgh concert
chorale, and we're doing *a sinatra retrospective* to celebrate the music of
frank sinatra for our pops concert this year. we're singing with the benny
benack band, a well-known jazz band around this area, and benny's wife,
claudia, is singing for us. during the first half of the show i sat in my
seat on stage, next to one of the few under-60 year olds in the chorus, and i
watched claudia sing. and i turned my head to benny, sort of expecting a
linford-esque gaze. unfortunately, it wasn't there.
i'm not exactly sure what this means.
maybe benny and claudia aren't as *in love* as karin and linford.
maybe when you haven't written the music, it's not as precious a bond.
maybe they just don't like looking at each other while they're performing.
i don't know. but the night was missing something. i think it was the aura
of love that i'm so accustomed to.
oh, and i'm going through listie withdrawel. luckily i'll get to see jg next
week at anne e.!
