Peter Lederman in Second Bout With COVID-19


I saw on Facebook late last night that Mike Fremer told one of his Audio Friends that he heard from Peter Lederman of Soundsmith that he is suffering his second round with COVID.  Peter said he has blood clots on his lungs. That is all the post said.  Here is hoping that Peter pulls through with a full recovery.

Peter: It's great to hear from you.  Get better.  This world is better with you in it.
Peter:
So glad to hear you are recovering!  I enjoy the Strain Gauge every day and still am amazed at how it so faithfully and accurately and emotionally presents the music.  I so deeply appreciate your warm hospitality in introducing me to your fantastic designs and how willing you are to impart your knowledge and experience. I hope that we can meet again in person soon.

Did your wonderful poems get published?

Just caught this -- a compelling and scary read. Best wishes indeed to Peter. I don't own a Soundsmith cartridge but I just imagined how it would be if I never could.  A somewhat macabre thought but it's my way of saying that we need people like Peter in this world to keep our analog passion alive. The talent pool is thin, here's to a full and satisfying recovery for the next stage of your journey sir. Peace. 
Thank you for your inquiry about my poetry. I have been spontaneously "receiving" it since I was about 8 or 9. I have a carried a recorder for the past 40 years, and keep one next to my bed as sometimes they wake me up. I have done some recitals by request, as many of them get memorized automatically after being "received". 60+ years worth. It is a gift, as I have consciously done nothing to earn this ability and I don't ."write" them....I just write them down. Small recital for Peekskill Arts -  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zZbVdUbIWyI&t=1837s - this is one I did a few years ago.

Yes, some are getting published again through a small poetry group that was brought into my life by a very strange sequence of rapid events 10 years ago - Cleveland house poets - one of the oldest/longest continuously  running poetry groups in the US. A third anthology is being done and some of mine are in there. Some in the group have been pressing me to print a small number of books of my life's poetry. We will see if I get time to do that.

Thanks again for you inquiry and once again - for all the well wishes. This is a very slow recovery.   - Peter
You, sir, are a true artist and rare individual. Thank you for sharing your gifts with us in this, sometimes fickle, community and industry. It is reaffirming and comforting in ways more than one. So pleased that your physical health is on the road to recovery.

Best wishes.
