Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky (1840 - 1893) narrowly beat out Steve Reich in your vote for the leading tone’s featured composer for February; we will feature his life and music all day on Saturday, February 4.
Some Reich coming up later in the month as well!
Thanks as always for your vote, and for following along.

In an effort to get people to look
into each other’s eyes more,
and also to appease the mutes,
the government has decided
to allot each person exactly one hundred
and sixty-seven words, per day.
When the phone rings, I put it to my ear
without saying hello. In the restaurant
I point at chicken noodle soup.
I am adjusting well to the new way.
Late at night, I call my long-distance lover,
proudly say I only used fifty-nine today.
I saved the rest for you.
When she doesn’t respond,
I know she’s used up all her words,
so I slowly whisper I love you
thirty-two and a third times.
After that, we just sit on the line
and listen to each other breathe.—
Jeffrey McDaniel, “The Quiet World” (Forgiveness Parade, Manic D Press, 1998)
I keep forgetting how good dude is.
