A Stroke of Genius! From 14 May 2026, the London Symphony Orchestra will perform concerts of music composed by Ludwig van Beethoven, Richard Wagner, and Richard Strauss that they describe as: 'Epic. Romantic. Exquisite.' And while the thought of Nathalie Stutzmann conducting the orchestra's performance of Beethoven's Piano Concerto No 3, Wagner's Overture: Rienzi, and Strauss's Der Rosenkavalier might in their own right satiate your music palettes, it is the appearance of the celebrated Norwegian pianist, Leif Ove Andsnes, widely regarded as the most brilliant Beethoven performer, who will dazzle the audiences senses as he strokes the keys in his elegant yet inspirational style.

What About Me? The question posed in the words of the song, to forever haunt me as life went on. The photograph of me depicted above is from almost thirty-three years ago. Where did the time go? Yet I look into those youthful eyes, and I see staring back at me a mere remnant of a man, whose self-doubt, frustration, lack of self-esteem, and most particularly, the fog of depression, which had clouded my thoughts since I was ten, all militated against my goal in the arts at that time.

If you still condone this administration, you're a special kind of stupid. We bombed a school filled with young girls. Gas just jumped 40 cents. Not to mention the cost of American lives. I'm beginning to think Bibi is Bubba. What's a few more trillion?

No, today's edition of my newsletter is not about the motion picture Interstellar, although I will admit it was a fine film in terms of its plot and scientific accuracy. No, the image from the film depicts the moment when the well-aged sonorous tone of Michael Caine's character's voiceover narrates some of the tercets (three-line stanzas) from Dylan Thomas's poem…

Pornography? Or Art? The best love affairs are those we never had. - Norman Lindsay It is hard to imagine in this century that there was a time during the twentieth century, when societal values in Australia were so puritanical that debate raged regarding whether an artist's works were art, or, somewhat absurdly, pornography. Indeed, I scratch my head now, in 2026, and I consider that it must have been untrue that these words were spoken about an artist's work.

Perhaps throw in a bit of Voodoo as well, because that laying on of the hands last week was next-level ‘Children of the Corn’ territory.
