The BSO plays the Music of Frank Zappa and Philip Glass
Friday, July 23 at 7:30 p.m.
The Baltimore Symphony Orchestra celebrates two of Baltimore's most
celebrated native sons, composers Frank Zappa and Philip Glass.
This is one of the rare orchestra-plays-the-music-of-rock-dorks things
that makes sense. After all, Zappa wrote music for orchestras on
purpose. Tonight, four of his spazzy opi are paired with fellow
Baltimore homeboy Glass' Symphony No. 4 ("Heroes"), based on the
atmospheric David Bowie album of the same name. Local beatboxer Shodekeh
performs as well, 'cause why not?

which t-shirt to "were" (intentional misspelling). Weasels, Freak
Out, Barfko Swill, maybe the Crank Some Frank Project object shirt?
Hmmm, which (Witch?) one?

The plural of opus is opera. But I don't think FZ wrote one.

(Central Daylight Time), spoke thusly:
Speaking of t-shirts, I found the article pasted below this morning. I
searched the available artists for both 'zappa' and 'beefheart' but
neither are available. I was hoping that, since Hal Leonard published
the Zappalog decades ago, they'd provide lyrics t-shirts featuring FZ
tunes. Not so. Not yet, anyway. Probably never. But, who knows.

You just told us that you can't write one opera.

Unless you split it into two volumes, in which case it will be an opera.
