So, your Monday link is his blog! Go over to his blog and tell him what your favorite recording is, and what score to use.
This is incentive to clean up a paper I wrote at Westminster called "Choose Your Own Messiah." I structured the paper like a Choose Your Own Adventure novel, and walked the reader through the various different "editions" of the Messiah that Handel conducted over his lifetime (he conducted it about once a year after he wrote it, and he changed something every time - reassigned solos, re-wrote things, left out movements, etc.) And, of course, if you made the wrong choice of how to use your time-traveler musicologist knowledge, you ended up dead.
That would work well on a blog. You choose by clicking on links, and each post is a page. When will we see it on your blog?

ReplyDeletethanks for the link! That paper sounds like a hit... I will check out the Dover on your recommendation.

ReplyDeleteYeah, yeah, yeah, I'll get around to it someday. I have to have some reputable people proof-read it and I want to do a lot of fact-checking before I stick it out on the web with my name on it!
