January 29 - Rain


First precipitation of the calendar year --


not much (1/50 of an inch) --


and some beaufiful


vistas in between,


on a day of Week 3 review for the Theoreticians,


Owen's class reviewing Chorale-Style Open Spacing and learning the hazards of Voice-Crossing (at least re c. 1650 - 1850).


Lunch, lab work, and return in the gloom, to score-study pages 9-12 of Samuel Barber's Violin Concerto: I, Op.14, and compose the ensuing page (8) for Abducted by Aliens: I. 1965 Gemini VII Bogey, Op. 222.
