I have finished reading "The Moonstone" by Wilkie Collins. What a great read. I have read many western classics in Chinese when I was younger. I have the luxury to reread them now in English. Very different experience.
By the way, Beethoven Emperor with Shippensburg Festival Orchestra (July 23rd) went ok. Unfortunately the first bassoon player and a few other orchestra players were caught in the traffic, that I had to play without some important orchestra parts. People seem to receive the whole experience warmly.
Mom & Dad had a great stay here for the past 2 weeks. Good food, lots of talk (which is rare for my family tradition), chaotic though. Little cousin, Ann, and her friend are here for summer English intensive course at the Georgetown University. I do have to say, do kids now a day only like Shopping??!!! Nothing else seems to drawn their attention. It is a strange world for me!
