Yay  :D

Performed a Bach hymn today for service. 

Both the B minor mass and the St. John Passion are being performed today in my city.  Unfortunately at the same time and different locations. 
Made a Liszt. Need new Handel's for Soler panel & Alkan foil. Will Faure Stein on the way to pick up Mendels' sohn. Josquin get Wolfgangs Schu with Clara. Gone Chopin, I'll be Bach

Tough choice; which one did you attend?

Shame on me.   :-[ I attended neither.  Opted to practise as I am playing services all week long. 

I was leaning toward the St. John if I were to go.

That wasn't Beethoven, that was Mahler.
