While listening ...

... to Ned Rorem's first symphony, I happened upon this: The Gentleman Composer.

I do not collect autographs - or very much of anything, but I am proud to have Ned's - and pleased to have met him. The Naxos recording of the three symphonies is very worth having, at least if you like music that is lovely to listen to. Ross is right: "... his music is too mysteriously sweet to die away."
