time we go
Where do you begin when perhaps the most eventful two months of your life are still happening?
I write from the mountains of Aspen with glorious weather and music surrounding on all sides, more coming in every day. And no ever day entirely feels off from work. But that is all right, and truthfully, exactly the environment I need to be in.
So – to start: Upon arriving in Aspen, I was assigned to be the sole librarian for the Aspen Opera Theatre Company. I had never done any opera work before, and it’s been quite a ride. Luckily, my colleagues had all done opera at some point or other and were able to guide.
In the process, I have begun a small site to preserve little treasures found when flipping through music parts to clean them, match them, bow them…all those things librarians have to do with parts. You can view (and submit, if you find anything) these discoveries at [http://heckelphon.tumblr.com]
edit: The Tumblr has since been removed. It is currently being transferred over to WordPress or Flickr.
