Oops, Part 3
Yesterday, I renamed Arnold Schoenberg, called him Aaron. I must have confused him with a character in one of his stage pieces. It's fixed now. An attentive reader, Chris Schneider, caught the mistake and sent this charming reprimand.
Geez, and I thought his name was *Moses* Schoenberg ...Anyone who makes a mistake like that deserves to be subjected to the Schoenberg joke in my additional lyrics for "The Wonder of You" (that's the Ellington/George song of that title, *not* the Elvis one).
Quote:
I've whistled 'Pierrot Lunaire,"
I've jockeyed in the June air;
I've moped about in moon air, all blue.
The worlds may fall asunder,
But nothing's like The Wonder of You.(©2002 Chris Schneider)

Thanks. I feel so much better
