Aspen Calling

|

While I was out tracking down a memory Thursday afternoon, I stopped in at the Central Branch of the St. Louis Public Library to check out a few CDs for my summer listening of the SLSO 0910 season. As sometimes happens, I ran into an SLSO musician doing the same thing, percussionist Tom Stubbs, who was turning in multiple versions of Mahler 5, Janacek Sinfonietta and other selections. "Hearing the different interpretations is really the fun part," Tom told me.

And since it was blistering hot outside, I had to ask Tom when he was heading to Aspen, just so he could rub it in. Tom has been a member of the faculty at the renowned Aspen Music Festival and School for many years, along with David Halen, Katy Mattis and Mark Sparks from the SLSO.

"Monday," Tom said with a big rub-it-in smile.

Casual Classics celebrates American music Sunday afternoon. No sparklers will be handed out, but the music will sparkle on its own.
