Aug. 3rd, 2018 12:43 amA man with a tattoo of Jörmungandr was playing Chrono Trigger. I believe he was at the part where Frog joined the party. Across from him, there was a man with a tattoo from the Dark Tower, who said the movie was disappointing and wrong but It was excellent. A woman had a tattoo of a sun.
On the orange line was a very androgynous woman with very long fingers with a star pendant, heart pendant, black shirt, and leather pants.
I met a miniature husky named Ronan and a ball of floof named Olive. Olive is shy and Ronan is friendly.
I met a golden retriever. I can’t remember her name but her owner was Sam, who had orange hair.
It rained briefly and then the sun came out and it stayed as humid as ever.
They opened up with a children's choir accompanied by two soloists and a pianist at about 6:25 PM, when my iPod clock stopped because it hasn't been getting along with this humidity. They finished at 6:25 PM.
I don’t think most of the audience was aware this was going on and they thought they were just rehearsing or something.
Light Your Lamps, There’s Just One Place Where Beauty Grows, and Look at the Stars are from a 2003 opera based on the story The Little Prince and in that as here, performed by a children’s choir. It would appear that they took liberties with the titles, and perhaps Amazon thinks I should be grateful that the tracklist is only somewhat useless as opposed to completely useless or non-existent. It’s about a pilot who crash lands in the Sahara and meets a prince from a tiny planet who came here to cure his loneliness, and the pilot eventually comes to realize that he too is lonely.
He Will Gather Us Around is from Dead Man Walking, based on a book about Helen Prejean’s role as a spiritual advisor to two murderers and her campaigns to abolish the death penalty.
The Evening Prayer is from Humperdinck’s Hansel und Gretel. Hänsel and Gretel wander off into the woods and find a house made of candy where an evil witch lives.
The Victory Chorus is from Brundibár by Hans Krása, originally performed by the children imprisoned in Theresienstadt, scored for the instruments he could scrounge up: flute, guitar, clarinet, accordion, piano, percussion, violins, a cello, and a double bass. The Nazis allowed it because the Red Cross was visiting. Aninka and Pepíček have a sick mother and no money so they sing in the marketplace and the evil organ grinder Brundibár who is obviously Hitler chases them away, so they enlist the help of a sparrow, a cat, and a dog to chase away Brundibár. Krása was then killed by the Nazis. Tony Kushner, thankfully not related to the Kush, and Maurice Sendak illustrated a book and gave Brundibár the Hitler mustache.
Va pensiero was sung in Italian.
Gabriella says that meowing is an all-purpose cat sound.
The orchestra opened with the overture to Semiramide, a bubbly, effervescent piece of music for a tragic opera about Shamiram, who dressed as a man so she could rule over Babylon.
I was disappointed that Robert Honeysucker wasn’t singing but they had an excuse. Instead, we get a concert for Robert Honeysucker.
I do have some new insights.
Back in the 15th century, black became the prominent color in place of white at funerals and the dies iræ was added because hell and damnation are a great subject for funerary masses.
They had initially decided on an intermission between the Offertory and the Sanctus, not quite as Verdi would have it, but then decided they'd put a brief intermission between Rossini and the Requiem.'
The offertorium is in a fugue form, as it is in many a requiem.
Not that it mattered, because this night, there was no busing between North Quincy and Braintree. Gabriella said it was like that the night before and that they're really inconsistent about it even when they said that they'd be busing all summer late on weeknights.
Wollaston appears to be coming along nicely, and so does the new footbridge.
I wanted to look up what kind of spiders are big, glossy black and bright yellow and red but then I realized I’m actually dreaming.
burning question: do you think that Trump has ever went grocery shopping in his life? I'd imagine something akin to the Simpsons episode where Mr. Burns goes shopping.
