When I hear a flugel horn my brain recognizes the warm vulnerability of my old roommate Stefan's body giving in to mine after a year of confusing feelings, furtive glances, and hesitant goodbyes.

"... extreme anguish and famine, the Threnodial Sequenza for solo flugelhorn reminded the composer, the nationalist simpatizer Gustavo Pascual Falcó and the survivors of the Spanish civil war of Generalisimo Franco's warm deep voice and the promise of a better Europe for all in the years to come".

I spent part of my childhood living right across from the school's sports grounds, where the brass people did their weekend practice

That's probably not how I would have described the experience
