A favorite painting by Karl Pilato at his recent exhibit at Space gallery, in Denver. The small scale here doesn't do the large canvasses justice. #painting #karlpilato #denverart
With my teacher, mentor and friend composer Anthony Davis at the Met, just after the last performance of his opera X: The Life and Times of Malcolm X. Amazing night!

While it's still on the wall at the Ent Center, Robin Richardson's amazing poster for my solo recital, "Sounding Time / Cosmic Sounding", on May 4th...an amazing experience, seems like just yesterday!
Head in the clouds at 12,000+ ft, looking towards Aspen along down the Continental Divide...rarified airs... #independencepass #daytripintheclouds #jonforshee
Sigh. This lovely, faded, chipped, ashy font featuring Amor carrying Cupid has enchanted my back porch for years...it reminds me of the Hypnerotomachia Poliphili... #hypnerotomachiapoliphili
Nourishing Concert: live stream performance of #gurdjieff piano works by Yleana Bautista, presented by The Mexico Gurdjieff Foundation, April 18, 6:30-7:30 MT. Very well attended, too 🙏 #gurdjieffmusic #yleanabautista #musicofanevening
Inspired by poet Dorota Czerner to share another from Stein's Tarot - also my favorite deck. This is The Fool..."Access/ from everywhere/ levereage/ for none ." = truly a card for today. #dorotaczerner #charlesstein #abeautifulsaturday @dorotkacz
Rocket stretching out on my notes after I've taken them off the wall...to be updated with new projects & deadlines. #outwiththeoldinwiththenew #wallchart #funwithmycat
Really looking forward to my talk & premiere of Apokatastasis...next year! All is postponed, almost as though the apocalyptic nature of this work became more than metaphor...
That I can pull up Ben Boretz's music on my TV, and having it inhabit the work space, stills borders on the miraculous to me... #benjaminboretz #openspacemagazine #pianomusic
