Welcome To The Party, Pal!

* 3 days later, the Henry Brant obits finally start to appear outside the blogosphere.

* "People clearly see a man standing up there and it's shocking to hear a woman's voice. But I'm creating a fantasy for them..."

* Daniel Kellogg gets recognized at the zoo.

* Columbus Symphony coasts to the end of its season on fumes provided by an anonymous donor; musicians pose the biggest threat to the orchestra's future.

* Melbourne Symphony's 2008 new music schedule.

* The builders of Oslo's new opera house didn't take the needs of pianists and double bassists to heart.

* The Czech children's opera that emerged from the Holocaust.

* "All classical music happens in a bubble. The conventional view is that it needs to be protected from criticism (or any response at all, really) from anyone not entirely invested in the world of classical music. The understanding is these external views will create a pressure that will compromise, or destroy, this music."
