Tonight I got to hear Chris Lee and Colleen O'Brien from the Seattle area. They played jazz and Colleen sang the words to many poems. They added some of Emily Dickinson's poems to their typical repetoire of Wadsworth, Elizabeth Barrett Browning, Shakespeare and others. Each poem had an appropriate picture with the words projected on a screen behind them. Colleen played her cello as if it were a bass, mostly plucking the strings with a minimal amount of bowing. It was very relaxing and unusual.
Chris played the vibraphone and percussion. At one point, he played a slit box which was most unusual in that it was a wooden box with slits in the top!

But the very best and most exciting news is that YaoYao had her baby Zachary! He was 9 pounds 2 ounces! Happy birthday, Zachary!
