Listened to the offering you offered.😁
Most of it. Some melodies were very nice. How you say like flat notes motifs and not sharp? I can't explain any better. 🙃

I did listen to his 'Elegy for Orchestra'. Quite pleasing.

How you been faring? Whenever I see your DU screename, you end up in my heart. 💓

What a nice way to start the day.

We're faring well, thank you. We retreated from NYC to our little mountain house in the Lower Catskills back in March-- almost a year ago! We've been very fortunate to be able to remain healthy and have enough to sustain us. Incredibly, I've been able to keep working remotely, which I've done for years, so we haven't had the financial troubles so many of our fellow citizens have experienced. We received our first doses of the Moderna vaccine and have our appointments for the second round next week.

All in all, I feel very grateful and lucky. When so many have suffered so much, we're humbled by the good fortune we've been blessed with.

I hope you're well, sprinkleeninow, and I enjoy reading your posts, too! Have a few hearts on me!
