In case your plane is diverted, and then diverted from where it was just
diverted to, and then perhaps diverted again, here are some performances
taking place in this quaint mini-metropolis in a valley in the Canadian
prairies. Not only am I in the couple of things in which my name appears
but - and here I must crow, gloat and swagger - I get to 'play' the cymbals
in Brahms' Academic Festival Overture.
