Yu Xi and her husband, Daniel, stopped by on February 5, 2012 to meet the Diva (that’s me). I guess you’d say I was happy to live up to my reputation as evidenced by the video clip below. In my own defense, I must say that my meow is a lot worse than my bite, which is more of a playful nip. I’m going more for the surprise element. Sure seems to get their attention. Yu Xi and Daniel were very understanding, and we had a very nice visit.

On January 28th, 2012, the Longmont Symphony Orchestra, with guest conductor, David Rutherford (pictured at left), will perform a program titled “Fur and Flying Feathers.” Works included in the concert are by John Williams, Mussorgsky, Saint-Saens, and my favorite, Mindaugas Piecaitis. Maestro Piecaitis, as you well know, is the composer of CATcerto. And, if you haven’t guessed by now, the “fur” part of the program is the performance of CATcerto with video of yours truly projected onto a large screen behind the orchestra. Perhaps you’ve seen the YouTube video of the original performance with Piecaitis conducting the Klaipėda Chamber Orchestra in the Klaipėda Concert Hall in Klaipėda (Lithuania): http://youtu.be/zeoT66v4EHg
CATcerto has been performed 14 times in 5 countries. And now it comes to Longmont, Colorado in the United States. If you live nearby, I do hope you check it out. The fur and feathers will be flying.

Who would have thought that a simple cat like me, born on the streets of Camden, NJ in the United States, would have fans and friends from all over the planet. I am definitely one fortunate feline.

While visiting New York City today, B&B were surprised to find that the November 28th issue of New York magazine referenced yours truly (twice) in a short piece about cat humor. Funny how some folks just can’t take a piano-playing cat seriously. Perhaps if I stood up and told a joke, they’d write about my immense and remarkable talent on the ivories. So, a cat, a mouse, and a goldfish walk into a bar….
