From: "Zachary Foreman"
is the answer "Poland"? lets see... no checks, need checks to use amex, can't cash your checks, Mastercard temporarily (I hope) disabled. Job, on hold.I will need about 300 dollars until I get back to America on the 27th. I think the best thing would be for you to send another check for maybe 200 to Mastercard, that way I can take out more money (I have a 200 cash advance limit but if there is a credit then I can take out more) basically, I think Mastercard will get your check in a few days and then I will be able to advance more but it would be easier (and save money) if you were to send them a check for my account. (I would have no problem getting a job, the only problem is that no one wants a teacher who has to leave in the middle of April...)anyway, I'm really excited b/c while you will be in Boise, I will be in Zamosc and Lublin and Kazimirz Dolny, some of the most beautiful cities in Poland. And then it is Palm Sunday, I want to see some passion plays and the entrance of Christ on a donkey. Then is the Beethoven Easter Festival. It is to commemorate his death (170 years ago). Remember Krakow was part of the Austrian Empire then. there will be some of the best musicians from Poland and Germany. Just before that I will see the Barber of Sevill, then a play based on Finnegans Wake. Then the "first-ever exhibition of Beethoven's manuscripts kept since 1946 in the musical archives of the Jagiellonina Library) (they were taken from the Prussian library and hidden in a monastery and then given to the Polish Home Army when the Soviets came and ended up in Krakow. I will here (in one week the Second Symphony, first piano concert, eighth symphony, Pathetiqu and Apassionata Sonatas (and in E Major op. 109) then on good Friday his Oratorio: Christ on the Mount of Olives, and on Easter Sunday, quartets in B Major(18/6,130,and 133), E flat Major 74 and finally the Missa Solemnis... lots of Beethoven. I also say fierce creatures, a really funny movie... I guess it's been in America for a while..I want to learn the solo from the barber of seville: FI-GA-RO....We learned the perfect in German the other day... gemacht, gelernt, gewohnt, gearbeitet... I need to study some vocab. BTW what do I say to the teaching person (my contact).. and what exactly is it... who do I teach? Ok talk to you later, bye Zach |
