Sounds good Marc .... I enjoyed a couple of chamber concert subscriptions when I lived in Halifax -- and with the smaller venues, the music is so upclose, personal, and involving.
Jean and I are looking forward to doing a couple of Vancouver Opera productions this upcoming season. La Boheme will be done in October, I've never seen it performed live, and have always wished to - just love Puccini's music!! Single tickets go on sale starting September 4, and I'll be online to secure a couple!!

Enjoy the concert this evening!!
La Boheme is a great opera, John. Good luck getting tickets for you and Jean. You shall be Rodolfo, the poet, and Jean can be Mimě, the seamstress. From there, you are on your own.

Thanks ... heh, we'll adopt those roles in our thoughts, but will definitely leave the actual singing to the others!!
Thought you might enjoy seeing a review I just got posted re: our Saturday sushi birthday lunch --- we sure enjoyed it ..

The Chopin and Shubert concert was spectacular. Maybe Kim could appreciate it more than yours truly, but I was still moved. What a performance.

I love Chopin Marc...........here is a tidbit of information for you - Chopin was the first composer to actually put pedal markings on his compositions. I love playing his Preludes and his Nocturnes
Went to the doctor yesterday about my shoulder and I am being sent for physiotherapy, he thinks that I have tendonitis and that definitely concerns me *sigh*

Morning Marc and Kim. Greg arrived last evening from Halifax and he and Leaha along with Ann will travel to Fort McMurray today to see his son and grandson. I won't go as that is an 890 km return trip in one day for a couple of hours visit there and back by dark. They have to leave there by 4:00 at the very latest to avoid driving 'moose run' at dusk, the most dangerous drive in Alberta.
Got SAP up and Marc, you will shudder at the video of a young Russian girl walking a beam on top of a building, also a dog making doo, and if you want to live longer, have more sex!
