<div dir="ltr">Well, what have I been up to? The beginning of the month I performed Copland, Brahms, & Dvorak with the Butler County Symphony,<div>our (my wife plays cello) 28th season with the ensemble. I am back at IUP and delivered two arrangements of French Noels from the Baroque period to begin the semester and last week conducted a first reading of my "The Eternal Flame", a commemorative piece for double trombone choir and narrator I wrote to mark the 50th anniversary of the Kennedy assassination. All of that will be performed on November 19 at the university. <span style="font-size: 12pt;">Next week I perform with IUP brass & organ faculty at Zion Lutheran in Indiana for Reformation Sunday and the following week we are doing Charlie Chaplin's "City Lights" in Butler. Chaplin created the musical score for this silent film and we will be showing the film as we perform. </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">(Side note: if you want tickets let me know as soon as possible--I usually get 4 free ones)</span></div><div><br></div><div>Other than that, I spent quality time with Ed at the Alle-Kiski Historical Society, led a new operator training class at PTM, printed and stuffed ballots for PTM, and am going to the opera today to see Aida (football fan alert--Franco Harris is leading the Grand March in the opera today)</div><div><br></div><div>I spend lots of time practicing and cleaning up leaves. I mulch some and burn others---yes we are still permitted to burn here.</div><div><br></div><div>If you missed it--I also performed at the PTM 50th Anniversary luncheon. See the most recent issue of PTM Trolley Fare, Fred Schneider took some great images.</div><div><br><div>Dennis F.

Soapbox opportunity; make the most of it!<br>> <br>> You have not recently mentioned anything about your concert or music engagements.<br>> I find them fascinating. Music is not at all unlike laughter is it; both speak a universal language.<br>> <br>> Yes; BB are the last posts I have seen. There was not much of anything before your BB posts for several weeks. You mentioned a book in relation to this; please tell more.<br>> <br>> <br>> Phil<br>> <br>> <br>> <br>> --------------------------------------------<br>> On Sat, 10/19/13, DF Cramer <alto_trombone@hotmail.com> wrote:<br>> <br>> Subject: [PRCo] still having issues<br>> To: "pittsburgh-railways@mailman.dementix.org" <pittsburgh-railways@mailman.dementix.org><br>> Date: Saturday, October 19, 2013, 3:52 AM<br>> <br>> it seemed very interesting that after<br>> I posted on the list, several emails came through.
