[ad_1]

Thanks for the recollections, I assume
(jeez Snapchat method to put me in a foul temper)
Imagine it or not, immediately marks precisely one 12 months since I launched into #1Summer50Concerts. In a approach, it is Classical Music Geek’s first anniversary, too — I had a pair posts earlier than that, however Might 28, 2019 was the true, no-turning-back launch.

I am nonetheless attempting to wrap my head round the truth that the much-awaited sequel to #1Summer50Concerts is a summer time the place in-person reside music does not exist in any respect. I miss live performance halls. SO a lot. I have been watching livestreams, after all, and pre-recorded concert events. They are not the identical. I do not anticipate them to be the identical. And albeit, I can not discover it in me to evaluate them as a result of, as I mentioned in my final submit, the truth that they exist supersedes high quality. Performers try to make us happier, attempting to assist us cope, and evaluating their performances feels short-sighted and wholly irrelevant in such a loopy time.

I do not actually have a lot to say — nothing’s occurred besides that I’ve changed into a grandma who sleeps until midday, cooks loads, goes on the identical every day stroll, and nonetheless does not observe. It was a pleasant life for the primary couple weeks. I am bored now. Perhaps it is time to begin working towards.

I will attempt to maintain posting by the summer time, however there’s solely so many instances I can write the identical “5 Issues You Ought to Pay attention To This Week” article. For now, a Mozart aria that is been caught in my head for days, taken from a live performance that my greatest pal and I watched collectively over Zoom two nights in the past (in case you’re questioning how that works: “3…2….1….go!” *press play collectively*). Sabine and Raphaël are among the many extra highly effective musical energy {couples} of immediately.

Anyway, pleased anniversary to me. Here is to many extra years of running a blog, most of them hopefully higher than 2020.
