(no subject)

That was fun - I was driving home from LASFS and listening to K Mozart (KMZT-FM) which was playing some really lovely harp music, with, among other things, touches of chromatic scale which I hadn't heard on a harp before. Really gorgeous stuff. I waited for the end before getting out of the car, and they mentioned the name of the artist, which I promptly forgot, and that it was from her new album "Scintillations". I got halfway to the door and realized that I could probably look it up on the net, and maybe buy a copy. Alas, I couldn't recall her name by the time I got inside and Googling only got me a lot of usages of the term in lower case, mostly physics and reviews of things I didn't want. Then I had a rush of brains to the head and looked up KMZT's site. Sure enough, they had a list of everything they'd played and a link to where you could buy the CD. The list only had the name of the specific piece, so I would never have located it by that, but figuring it out from the time I clicked on the link anyway, and sure enough there it was - "Scintillation" (no s) by Yolanda Kondanassis. There was also a list of the contents, including Claude Debussy's "Danse sacree et danse profane", my favorite Ravel piece "Pavane pour une infante defunte" and a few other meritorious things. I've ordered a copy and should receive it in a few days. Here's a link should anybody else be interested in checking this out.

Now THAT'S convenient!

What's not so convenient is that the entry screen just blew up on me - had to copy the post I'd just made and run over to the My LJ page and try again. If you don't see this, it didn't work. :) Anybody else have problems?
