Indeed.  There's a Messiaen festival just started in London this week
and I'm going to see the Turangalila symphony on Thursday.  Decided not
to see the Quartet for the End of Time yesterday mainly because that
was the only piece in the concert, and it was a long way to go for just
that, but also because it clashed with the Superbowl.

Vingt regards sur l'Enfant Jesus next week.
