The minutes of the June 10th Annual Meeting had previously been distributed by email. Ms. Zeller asked if there were any questions or comments. Mr. Husbands queried whether the minutes accurately recorded the Music Director as describing Schutz as the greatest composer prior to Bach. ...

Last night we had our first rehearsal for our next concert. I absolutely adore first rehearsals. It’s a fleeting and rare treat–the first time you experience a piece of music as a performer takes as much (if not more) focus than performance. ...

Charles W. Husbands This is the perfect time to start a relationship with a Sagittarius -- in particular, Henricus Sagittarius, better known by his German name, Heinrich Schütz! Yeah, he's 414 years old, but his music is as vital now as when it was written.

HIs Musikalische Exequien is one of my favorite pieces of music. I've loved it for nearly 50 years and look forward to performing it on the 6th. It's beautiful and sets its biblical texts with consummate skill and feeling. You don't have to be a religious person, trust me, to feel its power. Come find out for yourself.

Ok, I admit it...the Schutz season was announced and I thought ...Schutz...OKayyyyy...hmmmm...went home and dug through Dear Husband's 700+ CD collection and guess what? No Schutz! What to do? What have we gotten ourselves into? But here we are, teetering on the brink of the first concert of the season, and I'm now a Heinrich S groupie! So expressive! Yet simple and straightforward - DO NOT MISS THIS CONCERT!

-------------------------------------

The power and timelessness of Schütz’s music is on display in his Musikalische Exequien – music that stands near the top of the master’s creations. Coupled with one of Bach’s most serenely beautiful, warm and immensely humane cantatas, and Hugo Distler’s exhilarating Singet dem Herrn ein neues Lied, Arnold Schoenberg’s transcendent, visionary Friede auf Erden completes the program – a plea for peace that has moved our audiences every time we have performed it. It is time again.

It comes from all those years of axing his favorites out of the budget because the orchestras were too big. Evil management!

P.S. Actually I don't think David would say Donald Sur but I think Donald deserves a spot up there next to the others.
