Music and Clean Code

I just came home from a wonderful concert. Here is some data about it:

Friday, January 25, 2008
7:30pm / Saint Augustine Church
1738 West University Avenue, Gainesville
THOMAS KRAINES RECITAL
Thomas Kraines, cello Jubilus 2008 Resident Artist
Stephen Coxe, piano

Thomas Kraines (b. 1970)
Three Etudes for Cello Alone (2001)

Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750)
Cello Suite No. 4 in E-flat major, BWV 1010 (1723)

Olivier Messiaen (1908-1992)
"Louange à l'Éternité de Jésus" from Quartet for the End of Time (1940)

Anton Webern (1883-1945)
Three Little Pieces for Cello and Piano, Op. 11 (1914)

Stephen Coxe (b. 1966)
Cello Sonata (2007) WORLD PREMIERE
I. Con moto, sempre cantabile

Gabriel Fauré (1845-1924)
Sicilienne, Op. 78 (1898)
There is to be another one on Tuesday at the same place and time with the same cellist. Everyone should go, it is free and wonderful. Here is some more info.

Also, I was looking at the whole Internet and this really cool site popped up. It is called Drawter, and it is a dynamic interface for creating really nice web code. It is by far the best such tool I have seen and it even seems to incorporate some unique interface methods. I have just spent some time building a site for work and this kind of tool would have made it a lot easier. 

If you look at it check out the screen cast too, it shoes some good techniques.
