Symphony Comments

The University of Minnesota's student orchestra is performing Mahler's immense Symphony No.2 Resurrection for free on Sat. May 3. I'm going to be sitting in the front of the auditorium. I was curious about how your poem would handle the subject of SYMPHONY. Well, in your poem it's not the big orchestra, but rather a tender, intimate, serene (that's your word) sharing between two people, one listening creatively, the other performing creatively, and both utterly charmed by the harmony of sound (that's the root meaning of SYMPHONY) . Your poem charms!
