It would be damn near impossible
to find two men
with more opposite personalities.
I apologize to ECKERT PREU
because I immediately
created a page
about him
after the most recent concert by
The Long Beach Symphony.
That page, however will NOT
appear here
but what will appear here
is
ENRICO CHAPELA BARBA's
—a stunningly violently beautiful composition—
which the LB Symphony's home page
had yet to post
two weeks after
our world-class symphony orchestra
insanely and perfectly
accompanied
the piece
As for RUSTY BAKER
suffice it to say
that he is The 73rd King
whose tribute page
will be blogged
many weeks after
the King was crowned
In my immeasurably platonic way,
I love both of these men

What is so diametrically opposite about Eckart and Dusty?
ReplyDeleteTheir personalities are diametrically opposite
DeleteNOT their performance skills.
Both Eckart and Dusty are at the top of their game.
The games being classical music and baseball.
If the former were referred to as a "manager"
and the latter referred to as a "conductor,"
Preu and Baker would both laugh their asses off.
Music is the most beautiful form of applied mathematics
+ sports are the most exciting form of applied mathematics
WOW...the last two sentences are killer quotes.
ReplyDeleteI am certain that Enrico Chapela Barba
Deletewould say the same thing.
But I hold the copyright to "both sentences."
