Yesterday's concert in Istanbul was cancelled for health reasons, after Morricone had conducted two earlier in the week from a chair, unable to stand. Hopefully just a temporary thing. I find it remarkable that a man of his age is doing all these concerts (and hope he comes back to the UK!)

Morricone's fall is no rumor, unfortunately! http://filmscoremonthly.com/board/posts.cfm?threadID=101936&forumID=1&archive=0 He did fell from the conductor's podium at the end of the Zurich concert. Various media reported about it. He needed help to get up again by people around him. Although he was able to conduct the encores afterwards it seems to me that the fall caused more pain than expected. I wish him well.

I find it remarkable that a man of his age is doing all these concerts (and hope he comes back to the UK!) He's playing London ánd Dublin in December, all being well. Great news. I knew about Dublin but hadn't seen anything announcing London.

We're looking to have a gettogether, first a meal before the concert, possibly at Lawry's Carvery across from the Nokia Theater. Then maybe the night before (Wednesday Mar. 19th) an impromptu gathering at my house, with Italian food. This all depends on how much interest we get for both or either of them. Any takers? Hello, It depends on what time you would like to meet. You can contact me directly at musicbyroy@aol.com if you like. BTW, I have arranged some of Morricone's works for orchestra and concert band published by Alfred Music. Roy

Wow! Now THAT's a surprise! I think you'd sooner be waiting for Santa Claus to pull up on his sleigh at the Nokia than Ennio showing up, ever.
