Excited to add this new Fanny Hensel Piano Sonata in G Minor to our library collection at Luther College! Love that @henselpushers.bsky.social included thumbnail images from the manuscript in the editorial notes!

Northern lights on the Luther College campus!
Intense red northern lights with some green closer to the horizon. Pictured above the CFL at Luther College.

The Italian prune plums I used were on the small side this year, so I was able to use 28 plum halves for a full-sized torte. When I made the recipe again using my small springform pans, I was able to fit seven plum halves on each cake. I also tried it with peaches.
Two plum tortes and two peach tortes ready to go into the oven. They are in small springform pans. Two plum tortes and two peach tortes fresh out of the oven. They are in small springform pans.

A beautiful sunset over a river valley following a storm. The colors range from a golden yellow to coral to pink, with gray-blue clouds in the foreground and tiny slivers of blue sky near the horizon.

I have never seen a copyright notice set to music! Found in “Songs of Man: the International Book of Folk Songs” (by Luboff and Stracke, illustrations by Freeman), published in 1965. Set to a calypso no less! Love the fanfare and repeat for the Library of Congress catalog card number at the end!
A book’s copyright notice set to music. The music is framed with a red outline. There is an eagle at the top carrying a banner that reads “E pluribus unum”. The book is “Songs of Man: the International Book of Folk Song” by Luboff and Stracke, illustrations by Freeman, published in 1965. The page has a hand-written call number in the top left corner and a stamp of LUTHER COLLEGE LIBRARY in blue ink in the bottom left corner. The music is in three sections. After an introductory Rubato, the middle section is a calypso. The short fanfare at the end is for the Library of Congress catalog card number. The last section is the only part that is marked with a repeat.

Rochester Symphony holiday concert festivities!
