It took some digging, but I've ascertained that our COVID-19 testing kits (two via the university, two via the government) have extended expiration dates.

In other news, the Poppea deal mentioned in the previous post turned out to be too good to be true -- what I received was not a score, but a small book of French essays and the libretto.

And on that note, so to speak, it's back to the last batch of GOTV postcards. I've been listening to a lot of Merula, Handel, and Purcell while I work and write, and while this arrangement of "Would You Gain the Tender Creature" wouldn't be an audio-only favorite with me, I love how expressive the fellas are -- even with masks on, they're a joy to watch:
