conducting with the sniffles (38/365g) (whatsapp watercolor from kurt)

sick, no oriental music. brian left almost immediately on his return from parkrun for henry's forgotten vorspielstunde. Brian recorded it for me to hear later. I guess he has a competition on Thursday that he has decided he may want to start practicing for... 

I just couldn't cancel on Clementine who was holding her first ever conducting workshop - a very exclusive affair for just me, philipp, her partner kurt one lone outsider. i learned a lot even with ducking into the other room to sneeze or drink tea. it was a long walk back all the way from waltendorf with philipp, who graciously sight-read the piano accompaniment parts so henry could practice along. henry didn't even help me look for the piano sheet music. we chatted over getreidekaffee until brian got home from his pennyless players evening, then we chatted another half hour in the doorway.
