I want to write a much more detailed post about Bernstein, as I'm on one of my "kicks" with him (I saw him conduct in 1967 to open a new Centennial Hall in London, Ontario and remember every detail of it, unlike all the other dull concerts my parents schlepped me to.) I've been digging into his life with biographies, and have found one absolute dud, one absolute gem, and a few in between. Reviews to come.
At this moment, to be honest, I'm experimenting a lot with the "new Blogger" format which, so far, has been. . . Let's just say I'm having to try a lot of new things.
I hate change, and this is that, but I can also see where Blogger was becoming a dinosaur and would soon no longer function at all. I LOVE my new home page, the setup isn't too radically different, but why the damn white boxes around everything?
I've had to get used to the New YouTube, the New Facebook, a new email system, etc. etc., and so far the changes have either been beneficial or not noteworthy.
So if I end up posting some pretty strange stuff over the next days or weeks or months, that will be why.
