Hector Berlioz Quote Of The Week From Greg Bover
“Time is a great teacher, but unfortunately it kills all its pupils.”
Hector Berlioz (1803-1869) suggested by Rick Isaacs
Born in France, Berlioz was initially sent to Paris to study medicine, but spent the majority of his time in the library of the Conservatoire, in which he later enrolled to study composition. He himself was influenced by Beethoven, Gluck, and Mozart, among others, but would go on to have a profound effect on symphonic music, especially in powerful instrumentation, along with Liszt and Wagner, his contemporaries. Much of Berlioz’s work was inspired by the poetry of Byron, Goethe, and Shakespeare; his best known work, Symphonie fantastique, was inspired in part by Thomas deQuincey’s Confessions of an Opium Eater. Later in life, Berlioz came full circle, returning to the Paris Conservatoire to serve as Head Librarian. Gustav Mahler, Richard Strauss and Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov all gave credit to Berlioz for work that pre-figured their own.

Harbortown Cultural District next big event Tues August 27th, 6PM at the Cape Ann Museum
Don’t forget
CAPE ANN MUSEUM * IS THE NEXT BIG HARBORTOWN CULTURAL DISTRICT EVENT
Date: August 27, 2013
Time: 6PM
Please RSVP for the head count party prep
Let’s support our GHCD partner! The Cape Ann Museum, a Harbortown founding partner, has generously offered an exclusive after hours treat.
Come wander the hallways, rooms, expansive permanent collection and not one, but TWO well-thought and expertly curated, rotating exhibits, all the while sipping a beverage and enjoying your fellow GHCD cohorts. Museum Director Ronda Faloon will lead a tour of the Museum’ s renovation plans, with the most up to date and exciting reveal and news. Let’s put it this way…their campaign is inspiring! Take your own mental “before” snapshots and be ready for the Museum’s “after” plans: aiming for an even better visual, intellectual and cultural classic for downtownGloucester.
Along with socializing, having a bit of wine, cheese and fruit (compliments of the Museum), we’ll also mesh this event seamlessly with a partners meeting. We’ll do some GHCD business while we’re hobnobbing and doing business!

Sargent House celebrates Block Party from 6-8pm
This Saturday, 8/17, the Sargent House celebrates Block Party from 6-8pm.
SHM will have costumed actors roaming the garden, historic lawn games for
kids, and first floor Open House during the festivities on Main Street.
Boxed lunches by Beach Gourmet will be for sale; bring your blanket to
picnic on our scenic lawn.
At 6:30pm Henry Allen’s North Shore Folklore Theatre Co. will perform an act
from Judith Sargent Murray¹s 1795 play “The Medium” on the Block Party
stage. Judith¹s plays were the first plays by an American woman to be
staged. They have never been performed in Gloucester, and have rarely been
exhibited since their original debuts at Boston¹s Federal Street Theater.
Witness history in the making!

Wednesday morning action on the harbor from Lowell Peabody
OMG, OMG they were so good. The large tail is left because I had both of our legs and knuckles that I love. I mentioned to my hubby, maybe we should get smaller ones, his response: “why on earth would we want to do that? Miss having lobster rolls? Are you crazy?” I suspect we’ll be back next week.
My very best friend who now lives in SF, grew up in Cambridge (and was close to Julia child, yikers) will be visiting around our son’s wedding. She wants lobsters, so we will call ahead for a small order. She taught me ( from Pittsburgh) how to eat lobster and doesn’t leave a smidgen except the shell behind.
Thank you! Thank you!
I am stuffed ( in a delicious way)
Best,
JoAnn
