also looking forward to hearing the book announcement next week so my mom will stop texting me to ask if it's announced. We are all clamoring for this content
I can't wait to find out what the May book is! I loved Middlemarch May, even though I only really pretended to reread the book- I am in for any literary conversations and have already overcommitted myself to many a book club!! Yay Fran Magazine 100! (pew pew pew)
Congrats on 100! I have recommended you to music and movie friends alike, happy to see this issue focused on what you are excited for this year.
I am always interested in reading your classical music thoughts because although I enjoy going to see live performances, I am definitely of the let it wash over you variety. Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra just released their Classics schedule if you can take a peek! I go at least once a year but usually pick at random/tag along with someone who has a subscription. Just saw their Bernstein/Gershwin set this month which sandwiched some beautiful Ravel in between. Thanks!
Congrats on a 100! Im in the sf bay area and recently visited the sf symphony for the first time (& have a visit for their live performance of the score of LOTR movie #1 coming up) but would love to hear some reccs for the area! (I did drive all the way to big sur once to watch a movie screening so i am willing to drive to hear some music 🚗 💨 lol )
I'll be attending the Minnesota Orchestra in a few days to see Yuja Wang play live cuz I just gotta but am curious if you see anything interesting this year also I've been to the orchestra more than 5 times but also def fewer than 12.
Yay congratulations on the 100! Excited to hear what the book is although my Big Book for the year is gonna be Moby Dick so might not join in, let's see...
I just booked to take my never been to the symphony bf to see the NZSO perform Mahler 5 next week (conducted by Gemma New, New Zealand's Tár in that she is a blonde star conductor). But they're doing Tchaikovsky a few weeks later which I also might go to. I've just discovered that a small child I know is desperate to learn violin and despite wanting to indoctrinate him with viola superiority I want to see if he is keen to come so he can be enthusiastic about the potential in the string section 🥲 but keen to hear if you have any other NZSO recs for the year!!
Congratulations to Fran and Mag on Issue #100! This issue is incredible information to me (new, but excited, orchestra goer) because one of my goals this year is get to the Philharmonic. Currently making my Philadelphia subscription as we speak--most excited for Tchaikovsky's Pathetique and seeing Gil Shaham again.

Congrats Fran! So happy to have found my way here and the way you enrich my inbox every weekend when I finally catch up on newsletters.
Any tips for the LA Phil?
Alas, Beethoven likely conflicts with the 11...
