BSO Shocker!
This here blog-a-roo, now in its 20th year, has spanned yet another noteworthy tenure. Back in 2014 I noted Andris Nelsons taking up the baton as musical director of the Boston Symphony Orchestra.
The end of his association with the BSO has been announced.
“BSO and Andris Nelsons were not aligned on future vision.”

Straight From Hormuz
This being Massachusetts, I need monthly home heating oil deliveries from November to March. Consumption should start tapering off soon.
I have just paid $160 more than I did in November, for the exact same amount of home heating oil. That’s a 25% increase in just four months, from $4/gallon to $5/gal.
Diesel and home heating oil track each other, so I wasn’t surprised to see $4.99/gal. posted for diesel at a gas station today. This is, of course, a direct result of Trump’s war of choice with Iran.
