Day 255: Ein wunderbar Tage
Day 255 — Ein wunderbar Tage
13-April-1972 (Donnerstag–Thur.)
An
incredibly full day—horn lesson, piano practice,
electronic music composition and lecture, Leonard
Bernstein rehearsing the Vienna Philharmonic, another
Bach Heiler concert, and watching Buster Keaton
silent films. I’m still writing in German. The big
news—Leonard Bernstein is in town conducting the
Vienna Philharmonic in a Mahler series. This is big.

video, today.
Was this a full day or what? An incredible day.

Day 201 — Horn-o-phrenia

I discover
that I may be afflicted with the rare, horn player’s
problem, called horn-o-phrenia. Bipolar swings of
good and not-so-good playing. After analysis of this
journal, several professionals have concluded that I
certainly demonstrate bipolar horn playing.
To cheer myself up, I watch some great Siegfried horn
videos on YouTube.

Day 185 — Viennese Horn teachers
03-February-1972 (Donnerstag–Thur.)
Today, I
get a horn lesson from Dr. Paul, who tries to help me
with my frustration. I may not be a pro but I want to
be as good as I can.
I take this time to thank my main professor, Frederick Gabler. In my research I run across a great site filled with horn history and information.
