And a pianist who plays ravishingly.

Very nice finds, Roger and Jim.

I consider this Guardian article to be a wickedly brilliant piece of performance art, but almost everyone I shared it with after the 2017 eclipse told me they couldn't read the article because they weren't Guardian subscribers. (Nope, that wasn't the problem.)

Hoping the joke lands better this time:
How to tell if you damaged your eyes during the eclipse

Jim!

What a day! That’s the clarinet accomplishment I dreamed of through ten years of practicing, often within earshot of my mother, who one day said, “You’ll never be as good as Benny Goodman,” after which I never played clarinet again. Gorgeous Georgian Khatia on piano looks alarmingly like my young mother! Blazes!!
