127. Rosenberg 3.2 Not Violin Music = "A: Oh yes. [10]"
It should be noted (once in a while) that the book being reviewed had no page numbers, so the only way to find it would be to cite the opening line of the page. It was the 127th page to be reviewed.
June 21 note: I would like to thank my regular readers for their patience as my writings have been sparse this month owing to my first move (highly successful) in ten years. Though the Rosenberg 3.0 Not Violin Music reviews will get back to a regular schedule (we have 284 of these to get through and that’s not counting the appendices), and I hope to start the concluding “rebroadcasts” of my 2018-2019 radio programs, the New Music Alliance transcripts and new material from my archives of New Music America, as well as my senior’s adventures into the world of music and composition.
That and an upcoming auto (maybe audio) biography as well as a new dive into the world of radio are expected over the next few months as well, as it seems I will be getting involved with a new local (for this town) community radio station.
Today’s page from Rosenberg 3.0 Not Violin Music to be reviewed was randomly selected and was this one:
Given that I had to find short cuts as I intended to individually review all of the 284 pages of Rosenberg 3.0 Not Violin Music, and wanting to be as transparent as possible in order, I created the category of “ur-texts”, readings I made in between the actions of reading/instant reviewing the Rosenberg book. In the original facebook posts, we actually padded each review with my statement of “what I read or watched since the last review”.
I think I abandoned that in the latter portion of the creation of Rosenberg 3.1 Not Violin Music because it didn’t really reflect my reviewer’s instincts and even sometimes almost led me to declare “what I ate since I reviewed the last page”. In this age of AI I’m sure the robots could do something with that data, but for those of us still with one foot in the bookish world, it’s padding. Or really, not all authors are worthy of extra footnotes.
Anyway, I was in the midst of reading David Byrne’s book How Music Works which did make a reference to El Sistema, so this would be an easy review or at least one which could garner a maximum number of words with a minimum output of effort.
Thus, after reading the above and checking my own footnotes, I wrote this as a reviewer’s response:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/El_Sistema
The original link now only leads to a blurb and basic info, but here is general information on the book:

All of this is about Rosenberg 3.0 Not Violin Music (2014), and here are free previews of the “original” and order forms to purchase your very own unsigned copy. Digital copies are unlimited but only as long as the self-publisher provider continues to survive in a vicious capitalistic literary landscape. The stock of CDs of Dr. Johannes Rosenberg at the pipe organ seem to have been exhausted, but there is no harm in harassing the jonroseweb.com site to find out when the next batch is expected.

Which led to Rosenberg 3.1 Not Violin Music - three known copies only, maintaining a “valuable art object” status in order to belong to the Rosenberg Museum archives, only available to the masses as Rosenberg 3.1.1 Not Violin Music. I am still claiming that each of the three art objects have an individual value of $4500 (cdn) each, and that their value will surely go up as two of the three book holders inevitably pass away, like the status of the story of Dr. Rosenberg. Since the world is tuning into one big b-b-b-bitcoin casino, you could make worse investments.
