Martha has aged better than Daniel

He's had health issues over the past year - withdrew from several appearances and resigned some position at the Berlin State Opera Orchestra. He's an interesting guy. I met him back stage with the CSO and shook his hand. His hand is amazing. The right side of his hand was infinitely more developed than most people's. My technician who was the co-chief tech for the Chicago Symphony said Barenboim was one of the most naturally gifted musicians you'd ever meet. I remember one weekend where Barenboim performed or conducted in 5 different programs. He could play almost anything from memory. They had an auction once with the CSO where you could bid on a dinner with Barenboim and the head of the Orchestral Association where they'd come to your house. I bid on that - thinking it was the equivalent of a European vacation without the exhaustion of air travel - but sadly, was outbid - probably by someone who owned an oil company. I don't recall.

What does that mean?

The side of the hand with the 4th and 5th fingers felt thicker than one might expect. It was very solid, muscular.
