Richard III
Today, my friends, is a fairly important anniversary.
In 1483, on July 6, Richard Plantagenet, Duke of Gloucester, was crowned Richard III of England. He would only reign for a little more than two years, before being killed through treachery at the Battle of Bosworth Field.
Today, however, that is less important. We can celebrate, for one should celebrate coronations. Unfortunately, 'I am not in the celebrating vein, to-day,' (if one can be forgiven for paraphrasing Shakespeare'sTudor propaganda play.)
Later…
Got an e-mail back from the cello professor. I should be preparing a concerto movement and some Bach. I've been doing Popper. I am so royally screwed. And, it seems, if I want to have lessons, I'll have to declare as a music major. Okay. So from now on I'm a music major. Which is what I wanted, isn't it? Isn't it?
