musing on music & performance

I am a writer and classically trained pianist. I like Mahler, owls, vintage Samsonite, and science fiction films.
Have some piano music you'd like me to read through? Know of any concerts, performances or recent recordings I should hear? Extra seat in your box at the opera? Need a page turner? Yearning to play four-hand piano music but short two hands? Curious to read what I might write about a certain piece or performance? Just want to go dancing?
I welcome inquiries about collaboration, performance, and writing. Send scores, recordings, concert tickets, chocolates, champagne, postcards & the like to:
3011 W Fairview Avenue.
I also accept messages via missed connections columns, in lost bottles, or scrawled on the inside covers of books left to be found in secondhand shops.
This is my blogchalk:
United States, California, Oakland, English, Heather, creative-experimental-classical music, piano, performance, the art song.

Mmm, I'm intrigued by the power of music to induce tears, for whatever reason. I've not heard the first two on your list, and I can't recall the second two, so I'll have to give them a listen. A few of mine:
Rachmaninoff, Symphony No. 2
Tchaikovsky, Symphony No. 6
Dvorak, second movement of Symphony No. 8

This soundtrack is a list of music that makes me cry, whether I'm anguished or happy. Cry, cry.
