========================================

Baja Night Sky - Wednesday, March 20, 2013: Spring is here.  Around 4am this morning, the sun crossed the celestial equator, the imaginary  line in the sky over our terrestrial equator,  as our orbit around the sun turned Earth's axis from pointing away from the sun to slowly pointing directly at it by the summer solstice in June. If you are accustomed to the first day of Spring falling on March 21, it won't happen again until well into the next century. While most centennial years, i.e., 1700 , 1800, 1900,  2100,  are not leap years, 2000 was since it is divisible by 400. The extra day that year will cause the vernal equinox to fall on March 19 or 20 for more than 100 years. About 6:24am this morning, the Sun rose almost exactly in the east. If the Pacific Ocean is your western horizon, the sun will set almost exactly in the west, but behind local mountain ranges it will be slightly south of due west tonight. With longer days, the comet is becoming fainter.  I couldn't find it Monday evening. It may be as rare as a comet for someone to return to the concert stage after an absence of more than 40 years, but it happened in El Triunfo Sunday when Christian Schleifer gave his first formal piano concert in as many years. He opened with a  moving interpretation of Old Man River, followed by a tender All The Things You Are. The tempo changed unexpectedly with a rhythmic and romantic Bolero by Consuela Velázquez, the famous and most recorded Spanish song in the world, Béseme Mucho. For the next 45 minutes,  a packed theater of enthusiastic listeners enjoyed  the music of Gershwin, Kern, Rogers, and Bernstein among other composers. Visitors can look forward to an expanding repertoire of classical, Latin, popular and Broadway music. If you are in the vicinity of El Triunfo Thursday through Sunday between 10am to 2pm, stop by the Museo de la Musica for a guided tour, and performance by Christian.       Tom S.
