Prices are expected to almost instantly go back to $1500 a month.

It took a while to get to that point in the ceremony, didn't it?! I was watching on France24's YouTube feed. They let us hear most of the organ improvisations but talked over the last few. Annoying. But so good to hear it speak again.

Nice to see the Boult recording, which I remastered for Lyrita way back in the 90s. 🙂

I see the early music crowd hasn’t arrived yet. They’ll probably join in a couple of hundred years but still claim to know how things were done at the beginning.

I will be posting silly sheet music every day until I run out, or until my followers threaten me with bodily harm
