ELSEWHERE

    I’m scrambling to meet some writing deadlines, so in lieu of doing something original here today I’ll just point you to things I’m involved with elsewhere. If you’re a beginning to intermediate string player, you may have some interest in an article I put together on crossing techniques for Strings magazine. If you’re not a string player, the piece will be just too geeky and specialized for you. But you may find something more to your liking among the new reviews up at the Fanfare site, of which I’m the administrator. The first review on the page is even by yours truly. We’re working on a complete redesign of the site, because nearly everything you’ll see on that page is wrong in terms of contemporary Web design and ad display, but I didn’t design the site in the first place, so don’t blame me!
    Now, please pardon me while I try to write two play reviews and finish an article about Friederich August Kummer's cello duets while jockeying CDs here at the radio station, before heading off to take over the Tucson Weekly while the real editor is trying his best to create an international incident in China. Just don't tell my boss I'm doing all this writing on KUAT time.
