La prima volta che assistetti (fico “assistetti”, ve’?) alla Nona di Beethoven avevo 17 anni, e seduto con me in prima fila per sbaglio, ma manco troppo, c’era il Sorcio. All’Auditorium di via della Conciliazione. Io avevo su un doppio petto cammello di mio padre che mi stava tre volte, Luca invece aveva la giacca della prima comunione, che gli andava a pennello. Ci piacque moltissimo. Dirigeva Giulini.
Negli anni poi ho portato un sacco di gente ad ascoltare la Nona con me. Come se fosse una sorta di compito autoaffidatomi diffondere il verbo musicale più ascoltato e commercializzato del mondo. Che scemo!
Questa sera ad ascoltare l’Orchestra e il Coro dell’Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia diretti dal giovane Juraj Valcuha, nell’attesa un domani di portarci almeno uno dei miei figli (giuro che lo farò solo se me lo chiederanno. O se non mi diranno di no, va’), proverò una cosa nuova.
Ci andrò da solo.
“Sì,
chi anche una sola anima possa dir sua nel mondo!”

So not really on the same topic as your post, but I found this today and I just cant resist sharing. Mrs. Agathe’s dishwasher quit working so she called a repairman. Since she had to go to work the next day, she told him, “I’ll leave the key under the mat. Fix the dishwasher, leave the bill on the counter, and I’ll mail you the check. Oh, and by the waydon’t worry about my Doberman. He won’t bother you. But, whatever you do, do NOT under ANY circumstances talk to my parrot!” When the repairman arrived at Mrs. Agathe’s apartment the next day, he discovered the biggest and meanest looking Doberman he had ever seen. But just as she had said, the dog simply laid there on the carpet, watching the repairman go about his business. However, the whole time the parrot drove him nuts with his incessant cursing, yelling and name-calling. Finally the repairman couldn’t contain himself any longer and yelled, “Shut up, you stupid ugly bird!” To which the parrot replied, “Get him, Spike!”}
