Soft weekend

haven't you heard the music in the night 

wonderful music

faint as a will-o'-the-wisp

crazy as a loon

sad as a gypsy ... serenading the moon


The sky, the leaves, the smell ... this is the softest, sweetest weekend of the year. 

It deserves ... this.

Every jazz vocalist has taken a shot at Skylark,  written in 1941.

Johnny Mercer's words, Hoagie Carmicheal's music.

And Chiara Civello--mentioned in the last column I ever wrote for the Sun--sings it here.

Happy Thanksgiving.
