happy new year! - inviting you to check out "my" story (fun listen today, full of surprises), music (and memory), and places (pictured by me: the latest uploads) any day! -- Gerda Arendt (talk) 11:21, 10 January 2026 (UTC)
20 January is the 100th birthday of David Tudor (see my story) and the 300th birthday of Bach's cantata Meine Seufzer, meine Tränen, BWV 13, if we go by date instead of occasion as he would have thought, so see my story for last Sunday, and celebrate ;) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:40, 20 January 2026 (UTC)
- Thanks for reaching out to me Gerda; it is more meaningful than you may know. You are very dear to me and I am certain that the community hasn't an inkling of how fortunate they are because of you. The fact is; they couldn't know; even if they endeavored to care. In sincerity, I leave you my very best regards. --John Cline (talk) 04:31, 28 January 2026 (UTC)
