Thank you.
from Gideon Freudmann's newsletter, 2/28/09
"OK, now this gets a little weird. I received two emails recently - one from the Dayton Ballet (in Ohio) who will be performing a new piece using excerpts from Hologram Crackers and Fish Food for performances on March 19th - 22nd.
"The other was from the US Marine Chamber Ensemble (in Washington DC) who want some of my sheet music for an upcoming recital. I did not mention that my music may induce pacifism."
It also induces praise and pleasure. Gideon's due back on the east coast at the beginning of May, but mostly for school programs, alas.

Defense Official Became Folk Music Benefactor
Victor Heyman, friend to many including yours truly, died in January. There was an excellent article about him in the 2/22/09 Washington Post.
By Kay CoyteWashington Post Staff Writer Sunday, February 22, 2009; Page C09
Victor Heyman, a Defense Department official during the counterculture 1960s, emerged in later years as a widely recognized "folk angel."
His generosity ranged from financial backing of folk music venues and festivals to no-strings loans to down-on-their luck musicians, to thousands of acts of random kindness. Dr. Heyman, a Rockville resident who died Jan. 6 at 73, was the financial guardian of countless folk performers nationwide.
When Vermont songbird Rachel Bissex was dying of cancer in 2005, Dr. Heyman in short order spearheaded a two-disc tribute CD of her songs performed by some of the best of her contemporaries, from Patty Larkin to The Kennedys. More than $50,000 was raised for a college fund for Bissex's children.
When singer Tom Prasada-Rao, then of Takoma Park, was trying to make an impression in the New Folk competition at the prestigious Kerrville Folk Festival in Texas, Dr. Heyman and his wife, Reba, made T-shirts bearing Prasada-Rao's likeness, sat in front-row seats and created a buzz that helped him win that 1993 competition.
When Dr. Heyman won a $500 grand-prize drawing from CD production company Oasis Disc Manufacturing, he handed it over to Texas-based singer-songwriter Jenny Reynolds, who applied the windfall to her next recording, "Next to You."
