This weekend Christian had one of his peices premiered at Brandeis. It was a piece written for Electronics, piano, guitar and voice. C's friend Jose wrote the poem/words for the piece. C's friend Matt, who he met in Italy and attends the Hartt School in Hartford played the guitar. It was a great concert (really long...3 hours), but I was very proud of Christian. He is always working so hard on writing music and making things sound exactly how he wants them to.It is hard to believe he is almost done with his 1st year at Brandeis; only 4 more years left! He had written 3 wonderful peices and is already planning his next work. It is nice to know that my husband LOVES what he is doing. It was great to see this work performed after so much blood, sweat and tears (maybe not so many tears or really even blood, but sweat for sure!) went into it.
I decided to surprise Christian on Saturday by taking him to a bike shop to buy him a bike. He has been wanting one since we moved to Boston. So we went to BIKES NOT BOMBS and got him this fabulous looking bike! This will make it much easier for C to get around town.
He has been telling me how he wants a new hobby besides music and I think this will be just the thing!
Congrats on a fabulous year! Hope you enjoy the bike!

That is awesome- congratulations Christian! So is he working on his Doctorate? Matt will be going back to school next fall and we will be doing the long haul of masters and doctorate in mathematics so he can teach math in a college. Lots of work- but I agree, it is great for them to be doing something they love!
c'mon Christian, where is the spandex?
Alright Christian! Glad to see you finally got a bike, looks like a smooth ride. We'll have to go cruising one of these days. And you got it from a great place, gotta love BNB.
