Henry we are all so glad you push the GSPO so much! I would imagine, especially folks in Los Angeles, with just a few weekends in December and probably NUMEROUS Holiday parties to go to, many had to choose. The GSPO or a couple Holiday parties? The fact is the few of us film score folks that went had a great time and we wish we would have seen more familiar faces, but that is OK, completely OK as we know how busy the Holidays can be! We know as we get closer to Christmas, people's agendas get so so busy so I wasn't too surprised of the fewer film score faces. It was a great concert with some great musical selections. Glad I went and glad Henry is the NUMBER ONE GSPO fan!!

If I still lived in L.A. I would totally be there and I'm so jealous of all the great concerts they've done that I haven't been able to make it to. I remember it was great seeing and hearing them perform! Hopefully one day I'll live in CA again... Yavar

I do miss seeing you over at the Walt Disney Hall store and it's environs. But unfortunately I believe the reason you left, the economic downturn and work shortage, is still in place. I'd like to have you back too but make sure you have prospects. Thanks Henry. I had prospects and was very happy working for the L.A. Phil, but my wife did have a lot of trouble finding work for over a year (when we arrived in Houston she found new work faster than I did!) My boss at the L.A. Phil told me that if I ever came back to L.A., she had a job waiting for me, but she left the position (I think she retired) about a year ago so who knows who at the organization remembers me and would put in a good word. Of course it's a moot point right now because my wife and I are working to finally get college degrees...over halfway through now but still can't quite see the light at the end of the tunnel. Oh well, I've had lots of good work opportunities since then...managing Joel's Classical Shop and more recently working for the Santa Fe Opera has been really wonderful. I just miss all the great film music related stuff in L.A., plus my good friend John Morgan in particular, as well as you fine people (and would have loved to have made your better acquaintance, Peter!)

Looks like you made the right moves. Maybe if we get in your neck of the woods I will pay you a visit! The Dallas Symphony used to do some spectacular things. Take care! Yavar
