July 11, 2010 Who Knows?
We have been so many places in the last few daze I don't even remember this. It is from Dotterz camera and DH says that the building is Kyu Fukuokaken Koukaido Kihinkan.
Concert in Downtown Fukuoka Akurosu Building
Gee, this must have been a concert of the Kyushu University OB orchestra. I have been to too many places in the last few days and cannot recall without consulting DH. They were playing the works of some recently discovered composer who was a contemporary of Mahler. Both of them were a bit lacking a few marbles, but Mahler was the better composer. This fellow had too many undeveloped themes. DH and I put our collective marbles together and came up with the composer's name, Hans Rott. Herr Rott apparently was committed to an asylum after threating some fellow on a train with a gun because Brahms had filled the train with dynamite.... all right...... Poor fellow succumbed to tuberculosis at the tender age of 25. I don't remember Dotter going with us, but this is from her camera, so she must have been there.
