MARK ALBURGER, 2022: May 4

Mail out parts, and do poster and

press release

for

San Francisco Composers Chamber Orchestra's Bring 'Em Back Alive! (8pm, Saturday, May 28, Lakeside Presbyterian Church, 201 Eucalyptus, SF, CA).

Here in this swatch of baby-deep blues, surrounded by various pinks and reds (themselves abutting the more favorable colors once more),

we come to the end of an era for the print-publication of the local weekly,

which contains an ominous (semi-ambiguous visual -- seen sideways here to appreciate what-the-hell-is-up) map of someone's evil plan to ruin open space for many neighbors...

At present, all we can do is look over the situation, and head out for

errands,

on the 66th day of summer -- high up 5 to 91 (second highest of year, after April 8's 92... 3rd day at 90+ for the season) -- the 118th anniversary re beginning construction (1904) on the

Panama Canal.

Perfect day to celebrate the semi-updating of

Symphony No. 5 ("An American's Reply"), Op. 99 (2001),

edit pages 21-32 of

Oboe Concerto ("Wanderer"), Op. 118 (2004),

and create the necessary business for

Book of Dreams, 2022, Op. 376 (2022)
