[Magdalen] silence?

[Scott Knitter]

I just today realized I'd missed a concert in the Harris Theater this
afternoon: John Eliot Gardiner and the Monteverdi Choir and English Baroque
Orchestra performing Monteverdi's L'Incoronazione de Poppea. Here, in this
city. A celestial event by musicians of the heavenly realm. True, tickets
were priced sky-high as well, but had I known....
