[ilds] 1912 - 1990 :: Durrell & White & Glanville-Hicks

[Charles Sligh]

Bless you, David.  We will miss you during the Durrell Centenary.

That is an interesting observation about Patrick White's life years and 
his Centenary.  In connection, I will also recall another 1912 - 1990 
life -- that of the great Australian composer, Hellenophile, and friend 
of Lawrence Durrell, Peggy Glanville-Hicks.

Our friend Jen Condon is busy doing live-rehearsals for the 
Durrell/Glanville-Hicks work, /Sappho: Opera in Three Acts/ 
<http://www.sappho.com.au/index.php>.  I hope that everyone will follow 
Jen's work and order a copy of the /Sappho/ CD when it is released later 
this Centenary year.

We have much for which to be thankful -- especially for our friends, 
here and there, past and present.

Charles
