I was surprised at the amounts of people that were going into the park from all directions. Everyone seemed to have a blanket, a boyfriend or girlfriend, kids, friends, food and drink. I sat in one of the dug outs since i was by myself, an old sat next to me and the sunset was amazing. The sky filled with orange and crimson streaks that blanket the sky, i could see the tiny lights from the airplanes get bigger and bigger as they drew closer, every two minutes like shooting stars and i made i wish or two but i think its too late for those, it made me wonder of where all those people were going? Anyhow, over all it was a nice evening, not crazy about Bach but was really happy to be there , even though it made me feel somewhat sad that i was there by myself sitting next to another lonely person!!
Anyone else went?
Miss you E!

My gf & I went, adding to the overwhelming coupledom, and met up with a friend and her dog. We got there a bit late, so only caught the last 30 minutes or so, along with the fireworks, which were nice.

Yes, sooo many people filling up the field, and flooding out after the show was done. Wish I'd got there a bit earlier. I was home waiting for my gf to get home from the gym & out of the shower, and kept drooling over how beautiful the sky was getting, camera in hand.

SO... I don't know if you're single or your sweetheart is away, but find comfort in the fact that -- in being so -- you were at least free to get there when you wish to enjoy as little as much as you wish (including the beautiful sunset), without being at least somewhat tethered to another.

Sometimes, missing that sort of freedom hurts more than being single and lonely ever did...

Watching the moon rise was also very melancholic. For the first time in a while i found myself hanging out on the roof , sitting on a dirty old chair with the computer listening to Satie on Pandora, for the last 4 hours i have watched the moon slowly glide across Brooklyn, dipping behind the new buildings that have gone up, the hood is quiet and only interrupted by the lone howling cars racing down the avenue, finally had the bottle of Du Pape 96 that was given as a present, i do have to say that i was sad that i was not with anyone at the concert and even though i had someone i cared about till not too long ago. i did not appreciate my partner as much as i should have , now that i don´t have her i find myself feeling alone but still able to appreciate those things. Anyhow, the concert was great and glad to live close to the park and listen to good music and i finally got to listen to Sibelius live again, i have been waiting for it for a long time. Next one on my list will be Dvorak 9th, but that will be in a couple of months from now.Its getting late and those fucking mosquito´s have been trying to eat me for the last couple of hours while i was on the roof.
E. Missed you tonight!!

Another insomniac night, listening to Sofia Asgatovna Gubaidulina on the roof with the boombox, mosquito's trying to eat me alive the moon gliding once again, it reminds me of an egg yolk. Slowly sinking next to the Richard Mier building. Another Brooklyn lager and still watching the Airplanes go by, the lonely loud bird is chirping, the huge AC next door is breaking the silence , a slow cool breeze is making the trees sway back and forth, making shadows, ghostly shadows, i get up from the chair and i can see my moonlight shadow and The Lyre of Orpheus for violin is about to end! Thank god i get reception from the wireless up here!! What a beautiful piece, what a beautiful night gorgeous!!

XOXO E!
