"If you are an overeducated (or at least a semi-overeducated) youngish person with a sleep disorder and a surfeit of opinions, the thing to do, after all, is to start a blog." NYT, 09.12.05

High society

The fact that I'm back from Philly means that I'm over halfway done with my tour of the major US cities and also not any closer to a decision. However, I will say that I have started to have a clearer picture as to what I want and need for the future.

The highlight of this trip was of course, the New York Philharmonic, featuring the pianist Andre Watts. What I love about music was exemplified in the technical splendor of Watts on Saint Saens or the divine, exposed lonely notes in "Prelude and Liebestod from Tristan and Isolde."
