Day 103
— Death to the idiots
13-November-1971 (Sat.)
After a long day of practicing in horn ensembles, I take in a movie—the movie that really moved me a short while ago—Death in Venice. Unfortunately, some of the audience were apparently making fun of it. No, I didn’t scream it out, but probably thought it—Death to the idiots.

Day 101: Good horn lesson, I want to practice
Day 101
— Good horn lesson, I want to practice
11-November-1971 (Thur.)
I finally feel like I have a really good horn lesson. Thus, I want to practice more. The only thing is that I can’t, there is a problem with the practice rooms.
At night, a Strauss opera. A Richard Strauss opera is not an easy listen. Read More...

Day 65
— William Tell, meet Bonanza
06-October-1971 (Wed.)
Remember
my horn audition? Well, I blew it. I guess I was very
nervous. What will happen next? Will I get into
school? I’m not certain. I need some soul
soothing—Tchaikovsky and the Lone Ranger to the
rescue.
In 2007, I hit the Audio Engineering Show in NYC to walk down the aisles of Javits Center and look at all of the music and recording equipment that I can’t afford to buy. Well, I can buy a few things.

Day 63
— My first Viennese horn lesson
04-October-1971 (Mon.)
Today is
my first horn lesson from Professor Gabler in Vienna.
Holy cow, it’s an assembly line. I wait my turn as I
listen to other students, and other students wait
their turn as they listen to me. Uh, oh. What is this
Viennese style lesson?
In 2007, I am in Washington, D.C. and get to see Whistler's Mom.
