2022: An Update
My to-do list is long. It is brimming with promises and obligations. My commitments are palatial in their expansiveness; I am opulent with burden.
Every bullet point on my list anchors me to something I hold dear. These are touchstones in a world that has seemed to be undergoing seismic change for quite a while, now.
Some of the things — seminars, masterclasses, performances, oh my! — that have occupied my time may be of broader interest, so I’ll be posting those updates here in the near future.
What I wish for you is that the nature of your particular set of obligations is something you would choose again and again; that the path by which you arrived at your current troubles has been a rewarding one.
Until then, thanks for visiting and reading. Please enjoy this performance of Chopin’s Ballad No 4 by Benjamin Hochman, who recently flew in from Berlin to perform in Portland —
