There was a movement in the past decade to declare 1 April Whan That Aprille Day, kicking off national poetry month (the cruelest month, of course!) with a day celebrating "ancient, archaic, & 'dead' languages": I don't know if it's still happening, though of course all it takes to make it happen is to celebrate, if only by reading silently to yourself, some work that fits the aforementioned language categories. I didn't get it together either this year or last, but here are my previous entries. & 23 April is, of course, the traditional birth- & death-date of Shakespeare; though for reasons not clear to me the day is not yet a holiday in all English-speaking countries, you can always celebrate by picking a play to see or read: it's not easy to single out a bright particular star in the Shakespearean heavens, but you could always get a jump on the San Francisco Opera's centennial season by reading Antony & Cleopatra.
Operatic
Artistic Director Richard Egarr leads Philharmonia Baroque & an outstanding cast (including countertenor Iestyn Davies) in Handel's Radamisto, directed by Christophe Gayral on 20 & 22 - 24 April; in my opinion, this is as sure a thing as you can get with live performance, if you get to see it, as I will not, as it is only being performed at Bing Concert Hall at Stanford. For a non-driver in the East Bay like me, that's pretty much out of bounds. PBO also limited Matthew Aucoin's The No One's Rose to Bing performances; otherwise that would have been my first post-lockdown performance. I considered not listing Radamisto, as one of my guidelines here is usually "Is this something I can get to?", but my love of Handel won out. Also, I'm going to complain, something I love nearly as much as Handel – well, not complain exactly; I understand why a company could perform a regular concert in four separate venues in one week but couldn't do the same for a staged opera. I guess this is more in the nature of lamenting my cruel destiny? – which is more in line with baroque opera anyway. I do have generous friends who offer to drive me places, but I always feel it needs to be a place that, in case of emergency, I can get to & from myself. & though I realize I can seem a bit . . . shall we just say disengaged from daily life? yes, let's go with disengaged!, it always surprises me how many people assume I have never heard of such innovations as Uber or Lyft or even taxis. Bing Concert Hall itself was the occasion of an insane conversation with a friend who had fond memories of some concerts there & insisted I could get there with a bit of effort. When he went to Bing he was living in what he described as the "cultural wasteland of San Jose" & he also had a car. After I pointed out reasonable objections to all his suggestions, he finally started telling me I could take BART to some unspecified station near the Dumbarton Bridge & I guess Uber to Bing from there – & then repeat the whole process in reverse, possibly late at night. (This is enough of a detour without my swerving off into the current state of BART, but that's just one of several reasons the conversation was, as I said, insane.) I kept pointing out various difficulties – again, do people not think I think these things through? – & finally he said, "Well, that's a choice you're making!" Exactly, I responded: That is a choice I'm making. I know there's a way. Of course there's a way! There's always a way! I could probably walk to Palo Alto if I started early enough. The question is always: is this worth the cost in time, money, & effort? There is always, after all, something else to do. & though I have no doubt Radamisto will be fabulous & well worth a reasonable amount of effort, I'm afraid the magic will have to happen without me.

I'm putting this under Vocalists rather than Instrumental as he is so famed as an accompanist: Martin Katz will be giving a Master Class at the San Francisco Conservatory of Music on 13 April. This is as good a place as any to mention that the Conservatory has a full schedule of student recitals, ranging from instrumentalists to singers to composers, often for free or at minimal cost, & if the Conservatory is easy for you to get to & you like hearing the future, it's worth keeping an eye on their performance calendar.
