It was a slow fall for comments at the BAM website. The most interesting was a note from Lois Dean '58, who wrote of the pleasure of reading the magazine online, and linking from our September/October Arts & Culture article about composer Gabriel Kahane '03 (photo) to snippets of Kahane's music. "What a delight!" Dean wrote. "[Reading online your] introduction to a composer/performer I really like, and travelling to gabrielkahane.com [to listen to] a tiny performance in the comfort of my study—heater at my back, rain on the roof, deer in the garden, leaves falling. Kahane is easy on the ears, and he surprises. Thanks."
