GO GUARDIANS Ahead of my debut with The Cleveland Orchestra on Saturday, my friend Andy Grams took me to my ballpark debut with the Cleveland Guardians. Baseball - what a strangely wonderful thing. Still trying to figure it out... @cleguardians.com #theclevelandorchestra #ballpark #debut

PRANA EXTREM Ohne Zweifel eines der besten deutschsprachigen Bücher, die ich in den letzten Jahren gelesen habe: Prana Extrem von Joshua Groß. Starke formale Konstruktion gepaart mit einer sehr eigenwilligen Sprache und cooler Lässigkeit. Ich finde es einfach großartig.

RHEINFAHRT Meeting Simon Rattle after a truly fantastic Wagner-programme with @londonsymphony.bsky.social and Anja Kampe. It felt like "Schmetterlinge im Bauch" to hear the LSO perform Siegfried-Idyll in a chamber ensemble setting with an almost unbearable lightness. Bravi!

PETER GÜLKE (1934-2026) There are few musicians who are capable of describing, with such brilliance and sensitive intelligence, what words often fail to convey: The significance of music. Peter Gülke showed us by example just how worthwhile it is to strive for music.
