Thrilled to report that the first copies of my new book, “Bruckner's Fourth: The Biography of a Symphony,” have just shipped. If you are interested in a copy of your very own, you will find a nice discount code on this flyer.

@SOMMRecordings It's a pleasure to be involved in this project. John and Lani put together a great mix of recordings. Writing the notes for the series has been fascinating--and a treat because SOMM gave me all the space I could ask for! Feel free to have a look at them on the SOMM website.

The event grows out of our seminar course of the same title, where Clark undergraduate and graduate students have been learning about Viennese culture and politics all term!

The events include musical performances and a symposium on April 21. The symposium features an interdisciplinary group of distinguished scholars, including Michaela Baranello, Steven Beller, Joy Calico, Alys George, Laura Morowitz, and Lisa Silverman.

Thanks for the suggestions. Fwiw Yesterday went to Schilo's deli, which was just fine, cheap and close by.

@JacekBL @BenKorstvedt Seconded! Quite good and you can get interesting things!
