Skinny's Ballroom/Graham Reynolds

How fortunate were Abe and I to spend a few hours with Chale Nafus in this skinny bar surrounded by friendly Austin patrons listening to Graham Reynolds perform his version of holiday classics.  As Chale said think cubism when listening.  You'll hear the melody you know within Graham's constructed interpretation.  We've followed this composer/musician since we've arrived in Austin hearing his original score to WINGS and then an interpretive piece of Mozart's with the Austin Ballet.  He is a brilliant composer/musician.  And a very pleasant man who wheels in his own piano.  While Abe couldn't get past the decibel level (it was advertised as a Holiday LOUD  SHOW) he was patient and open to interpretation (thank-you Chale).  A fine evening ending with more latke cooking.  I'm done!  Yay!
