Vienna 1971—A Student Journal
A year of music, study, travel, sightseeing & friends.



Day 170 — Get Ready, Munich
19-January-1972 (Mittwoch–Wed.)


TRANSCRIPT

Lot of running around to get ready to leave for Munich. It’s also going to cost some money. However, after Munich, will travel to Kitzbühel to see Mike, perhaps ski, and return with Mike to Vienna.

Also did some more electronic music.

Saw another “fantastic” installment (#3) of “Heiler Plays Bach.” A fantastic artist—his interpretation.

Now off to Munich.


REFLECTIONS

Munich prep. I’m getting ready to go to Munich. I find it interesting that, in the journal, I give the impression that I’m thinking of going somewhere and then in the next minute, I go. It looks like I’m going to see my friends in Munich and then rendezvous with my brother Mike in Kitzbühel.

Heiler’s art. Anton Heiler series of Bach concerts was a treat. His art and interpretation was legendary.

Once-in-a-lifetime. As a student, this single year as a music student has allowed me to experience an incredible number of the highest quality recitals, concerts, and operas. I have never again had this musical opportunity to this day, 36 years later. Once again, my humble thanks to Rotary International and to Vienna, and to the many artists and musicians performing in those concerts.

On the way. I leave for Munich. By train. It’s exciting.

John
