If you'll cast your collective gaze to the right, you'll see that a Lucerne countdown has taken up residency in the sidebar. The February 23 and 24 Fellowship of the Ring concerts are still a way off, but as you can see, they're getting ever closer! Fortunately Art Production's terrific staff has been doing a great job keeping me on top of things. Right now, we are planning two lectures/Q&A sessions with Howard Shore and me--one on Saturday, one on Sunday, each beginning one hour before the performance.

I know Howard is very excited about all this, and you better believe I am as well.

So what are you waiting for? Click the link, hop on a train, a car or a plane, get yourself on the Road to Lucerne and come be a part of LOTR history!
