Working lunch

This is how I spent my lunch yesterday. Singapore Noodles with a side
of Mahler's 8th. I feel pretty good about the Symphony/Chorale's prep
work for tonight's first performance of this big work. But I'm also
reminded why I left the Chorale in the first place - too little time
for polishing pieces other than the over-performed Messiah and Ode to
Joy. I'd much rather sing Mahler every year.
