What we do every day.

Mary watches Fantasia a few times a day.

In the opening sequence when the orchestra is being shown, it goes like this:

Mary: What's that?
Me: That's a French horn.

Mary: What's that?
Me: That's a harp.

Mary: What's that?
Me: That's a cello. (Pause.) Or a double bass, maybe. I don't know. Hey, look! Violins!

Sigh.

I wish the CSO had a program like the New York Philharmonic's Very Young People's Concerts.
Is that too much too ask?

In Atlanta, when you say CSO, you are saying Combined Sewer Overflow.

I had a little moment there....

Well, that's what I meant.
I wish Combined Sewer Overflow had a nice little music program.
