So how come the Obamas aren't all color-coordinated this time? Not that they don't all look great, but it was cool to see them like that at past events.

Simple gifts existed before Copeland I believe. I think he incorporated it into Appalachian Spring.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

That was beautiful!

Trust my rage

yeah, I heard NPR mention it like 30 seconds after I hit post. I just thought of it because this morning they were talking about how critical timing was

"What would it take to get your daughter to stop tweeting about this?"

Ha, I clapped along too. I may be a little invested.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

That was a gorgeous arrangement.

Now tagless for your comfort.

The clarinetist is hot. You need really strong lips to play that instrument.

What? I played in the 7th grade band.

Nana korobi, ya oki. (Fall down seven times, stand up eight.) ~Yuzuru Hanyu/Japanese proverb

They just said it was based on an old Shaker hymn. I really liked it.

Well, I know it's hard to play wind instruments in weather that cold, I can't imagine it's terribly nice to play violin or cello in 20 degree weather either...

But to play at noon, and know Obama is becoming president as you play? HELLS YEAH!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Oh, I know. It's a Shaker folk song. But Williams cribbed from Copland's use of it.

(Sorry. Copland geek.)
