It’s not for nothing that Beethoven 9’s theme is “Ode to Joy”.

I missed the TFC concert tonight, but I’m celebrating my Mom’s love of Tanglewood by going to open rehearsal on Sat. for Beethoven 9.

My best wishes to John Oliver and the entire Tanglewood Festival Chorus; you all were family to us. (I was a member of TFC ’74-’84)

I wish I were going to be out at John Oliver’s last TFC Prelude concert at Tanglewood tonight; my Mom loved TFC performances at Tanglewood.

To my mom who passed on at 2 pm today at the age of 89: rest in peace mom.
