Wedneday in Stockholm

To Moderna Museet seeing newTinguley and Niki de Ste Phaele joined sculptures outside museum. Next exhibition of Nils Dardel 1888 to 1943. Dardel shows wide variety of styles and is very good at satire. The Duchamp and Surrealist exhibition is still going and worth seeing. However the Monument to the third international by Tatlin has disappeared. Ate moderately well at the museum but wonderful view of Stockholm harbour.
To German Church for first concert of the series with L'Arpeggiata. Lovely playing, good singing and very violent female dancing. Theme was tarantella for performance, marriage and mourning. Extremely good start to season. Met number of old friends including eminent American Duncan who is on short visit consulting at Karolinska. Wine after performance and the 2340 boat back to Badger and bed.
