Great. I haven’t heard this concert by the Maestro. The best news in a long time. I hope I will be able to listen here in Sweden. Really looking forward to this evening just hope that the Maestro will be back soon with more wonderful music. Bo Olsson, Sweden.
Hi Jon I would like to send you my text to you. I hope you like it. Mila
“I vibrate,
Your sound makes me vibrate
and my skin becomes goosy
it is coverd with steam.
I vibrate,
your sound wraps around me
I close my eyes and I see you
your hands are wings.
I vibrate,
your sound oxygenate me
your fingers are wind,
wind on my face.
I vibrate,
your sound keeps me alive
do not stop continue
your impulse is life.
I vibrate,
make your fingers dance
make your fingers dance
make your fingers dance “
Unfortunately we could not listen to it… in the Newsletter sent by e-mails it said Tuesday, May16… 😦
I didn’t pay attention to the calender mistake and turned on the radio tonight – Wednesday, May 16…
Do you know if the WDR-3 are going to upload it as they do with some other broadcasts?
Such a disappointment…

I realised this mistake too late, very sorry. I am not aware of any repeat broadcasts.
We were very lucky to hear the broadcast on WDR3 and were quite overwhelmed to hear this first performance. The enthusiastic response of the audience at Hagen said it all. Jon’s writing even in a difficult period shows such depths of feeling and begs the eternal question – will it please be recorded? Best wishes, Jon, and thank you for another uplifting gift to us.
Hi Jon,
happy birthday from Mila with a short poem;
day met night
they wrapped around each other
and there were paks
day rested
night labored
night met day
they wrapped around each other
and there were paks
night rested
day procreated
I name you rays of sun
you are the son of dawn
you are the son of sunset
Mila
hello jon with short hair you are more attractive!
Hello Jon,
I have written this poem for all those a little bit crazy like me!
My dear friend
My dear friend who dresses in darkness, only your perfume I know
I have always heard of you
since you saw the light
but at time I did not have faculty
I grew and barely heard your voice
everybody cried
many avoids you, it’s plausible and understandable, they don’t want you
to much is the fear much is the will not to abandon
to me it’s almost no
the idea to leave you upsets me and already I miss them
I love them above my life but desirer to meet you
I think of you since time
since time I feel bad could it be masochism
I need to de-touch the burden, punish
I am afraid
arrive is a long jump
burdensome to turn back
would be prison more than punishment
would it be too much
that you took my hand.
