Day 151: New Year’s Eve—Die Fledermaus
Day 151
— New Year’s Eve—Die Fledermaus
31-December-1971 (day.)
A day filled with New Year's Eve traditions—spending all day in a standing room line, an ad-lib performance of Die Fledermaus, sneaking in champagne into the opera house (?), Kärtnerstrasse, Stephansdom Platz, and partying. Great performances. Great traditions. Too much to drink. Read More...

Day 145: Vienna! Frohe Weihnachten—Merry Christmas!
Day 145
— Vienna! Frohe Weihnachten—Merry Christmas!
25-December-1971 (Sat.)
A
wonderful Viennese Christmas day with my roommate,
Pavel, his sister, and her friend who have come to
see Pavel all the way from California. A good day
with some sightseeing, dinner, and conversation. A
Verdi opera concludes a great day.
The spirit of Christmas is about families. Meet John’s family and brothers. A photo bonanza. (There are so many photos today—you may need a fast Internet connection for this post.)

Day 60
— Austria 360—beautiful panoramas
01-October-1971 (Fri.)
01971:
Some letter writing to mom and my brothers relieves
some of my horn-playing stress.
2007: I discover two new websites, one Austrian, www.austria-360.at, and the other www.panoramas.dk, that display absolutely gorgeous 360-degree panoramic pictures from around Austria and the world. Absolutely gorgeous and a lot of fun. The picture at the left is from panoramas.dk and is of the Vienna National Library (© Peter Winkler). It is stunning in 360.

I'm really sad, once again, and missing Anjali.
She is still here, but I'm missing
her. Ah, young love! Read

Day 026: Mahler’s 8th Symphony; Schönbrunn Palace
Day 26
— Mahler’s 8th Symphony; Schönbrunn Palace
28-August-1971 (Sat.)
What a
day. A visit to the incredible Schönbrunn Palace and
gardens with Anjali, and an incredible performance of
Mahler’s 8th Symphony. Shivers…shivers…shivers up and
down my spine.
Practice on my new horn and sad to see Achille leave for Italy.
And a little rant on why the RIAA should change their policies and fees on licensing music for Internet-radio and podcasts.
