Too bad the concert is all sold out in my town.

Just curious:  you said that her notes are loaded with second meaning; what is the first meaning then?

I still would try to get in there but it is me. I think it will be an opportunity to pick some tickets form the crowd before the performance. I will be many Russians in there, many of then will be old, so it will be a chance that some of then will not be able to do it….

The first meaning, the second meaning… It is very simple. The nature of musicality is that tones and sequences of tones crate response in listener awareness. It is almost biological as the entire musical culture, the progress of musical instruments, the rules of harmonies, the methods of compositions and many other things… all based upon the adequacy of humane perception and unanimity of human reaction to different tonal irritations. This adequacy is the first meaning of the tones. The second meaning is what between the lines, or mathematically speaking - the irrational numbers….
