I was going to finish my review of this past Saturday’s Los Angeles Philharmonic Mahler 5 concert, or of András Schiff‘s sparkling take on Book 2 of The Well-Tempered Clavier before that, or the Los Angeles Master Chorale’s excellent organ concert before both of them.

Instead, I figured I’d post a couple of funny things to provide some mild comic relief to all of the weather woes being experienced by East Coast family and friends in the way of Stormageddon  2012 (BTW:  I haven’t heard it called that by anyone — did I really just make that up all by my lonesome??!!!).

I’ll get to those other reviews in the coming days.  In the meantime, I hope you get a chuckle from these two things, one very classical music oriented (care of the Pacific Symphony’s tumblr), and one very much NOT.
