  1. Luen Suna Vuoren Esa-Pekka Salonen -kirjaa. Se on hauska ja kiinnostava. Kirjoittelen muistiin levytyksiä, jotka haluan kuunnella. Yksityiselämän puolelta tämä toteamus lastenkasvatuksesta osui ja upposi: "Mutta tämä vanhemmuus on sikäli hankalaa, että silloin, kun alkaa vähitellen ymmärtää, miten se olisi pitänyt tehdä, mahdollisuus meni jo."

  2. Stravinsky -- Symphony in Three Movements

    I was prompted to listen to this because the recording was one of the nominees for Best Orchestral Performance at the 2026 Grammys.

    I'm not familiar with piece. I was at once surprised and oddly reassured that the 1946 neoclassical Stravinsky was not a million miles from the "Rite of Spring" Stravinsky of three decades and two world wars earlier -- in the first movement at least.

  3. Finnish composer and conductor Esa-Pekka Salonen picked up his second Grammy in February, shortly before his unexpected departure from the #SanFrancisco Symphony.

  4. A planetary nebula is a phase of stellar evolution that the sun should experience several billion years from now, when it expands to become a red giant. It will then shed most of its outer layers, leaving behind a hot core that contracts to form a dense white dwarf star. A wind from the hot core will ram into the ejected atmosphere, creating beautiful, shell-like structures seen with optical telescopes. This gallery shows four planetary nebulas from the first systematic survey of such objects in the solar neighborhood made with NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory. X-ray emission from Chandra is colored purple and optical emission from the Hubble Space Telescope is colored red, green and blue. The diffuse X-ray emission is caused by shock waves as the wind collides with the ejected atmosphere.
