Ballet for Martha: Making Appalachian Spring | Jan Greenberg, Sandra Jordan

Symphony post no. 2: And David Robertson read from Ballet for Martha, the wonderful picture book about the creation of Aaron Copland's Appalachian Spring (also performed tonight). This youth librarian's heart was warmed several times over. 💗💗💗 #slso

(Apologies for the grainy photo.)

Lacythebookworm That's awesome! 🙌😊 8y

jesstothefuture I went to one of his pre-show lectures last year and like half of it was about his kids, so I'm not surprised he's sharing picture books with the audience this year. 8y

LindsayReads @jesstothefuture Hahaha, totally not surprised. 8y

The Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet: A Novel | Becky Chambers

Symphony post no. 1: I got to see my favorite symphony of all time live tonight (Beethoven 7) (🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘). Showed up early for once for the pre-show talk with our fabulous conductor, David Robertson, and nearly had Powell Hall to myself. Of course, I brought my current companion with me for down time. #slso

vivastory Just last week I was musing that I need to go to the symphony. I've never been & I love classical, it's a major oversight I need to correct soon. 8y

LindsayReads @vivastory Do it! It's one of the nicer splurges I allow myself, and it's always worth it. 8y

vivastory @LindsayReads I'm definitely planning on it. I'm going to try to go when they do a Tchaikovsky or Bartok. 8y
