  1. First proper teaching day of the season was a fun one! Two chamber music lessons, one with a recorder student and her pianist friend, the other with recorder and harpsichord. Both lessons went over time because the teacher got so enthousiastic, ahem. The other lessons went well, too. And I managed to practise both singing (Mahler, Wie had das liedlein erdacht?, much too difficult but good practise) and dulcian between students. Plan for this winter is to mostly focus on singing but rotate the reed instruments so that I’m always working on one of them.

  2. My new cleaner has been telling me since I hired her that she’s always wanted to be a singer. I thought, ya ya like every other person who thinks they can sing. Anyhoo she entered a contest and holy crow she’s actually really amazing! Here’s her audition tape. If you like her I’m sure she’d appreciate the vote (free vote is at the bottom). #Music #BlownAway #Singing #Contest

    Private Concert

    Here are #concertphotos from my #birthdayparty with one of my favorite young bands: #EDDIE
    It’s like three bands are playing, because all of them take turns #singing and swap #instruments

    It was an emotional moment when Ascanio played my mother’s #guitar, accompanied by his band. He didn’t even know (and neither did I) that Mom had bought that guitar when she was pregnant with me. It gave me goosebumps when my Mother told the guitar #story (1/2)

  4. Reflections or Regrets?

    Cleaning the Blackboard or Scratching the Fleas?

    Daily writing prompt If you could erase one event from history, what would it be? View all responses

    One of the first answers today was to erase the events that happened to my parents on February 6 1958, my birth. That didn’t last very long though, a blink in the eye of time, because let’s face it, I enjoy being here most of the time.

    Maybe I would go with the assassination of John F. Kennedy. I have often wondered what history would look like if he hadn’t been shot. I have a strong dislike for the events following his death and believe LBJ screwed the pooch as well as America.

    I’m keeping these answers in my lifeline so the third choice would probably be the internet. Even though it has been useful and helped the world in many ways I think it has accelerated the downfall of society. I mean yeah, I can find out what Kim Lee made for supper in Shanghai last night or what Peppy Morgan dislikes about blood pudding but is this trade off worth what I am doing in my life right now?

    Damn Skippy it is, which brings me to why I am writing this post.

    Welcome to another update of my journey with AI.

    Good morning. I wasn’t planning on doing the daily prompt but plans are like the wind, changing on a moments notice. Yesterday found me laying tracks down all day. I recorded one song repeatedly filling up one side of a reel 2 1/2 times, (about 85 minutes per side or roughly 70 takes) and still am at the starting line with it. It is 3:04 long and after seven hours the day was finished with two takes I liked enough to transfer to my DAW today and see if I can keep any parts of them in editing.

    Editing is nothing like when I did my books, way more technical and challenging to me. The two takes I kept might leave me with less than 1 minute of the track I can use for the final outcome.. I am feeling more comfortable with singing and even have been finding my groove so to speak. The problem? keeping my vocals in the same pitch or range. I tend to change octaves quite often and although less than before I still get out of tune easily. 😁

    The good news, I am feeling relaxed in knowing I’m finding my range in vocals as well as the distance I need to be from the mic so as not to overpower the music or be so far away as it sounds like I’m not in the same room as the music. I’ve also found that breaks are needed throughout the day. If I don’t take a break my vocal chords start feeling scratchy and I don’t want to over do it. So it goes that 1 – this is way more complicated than I thought it would be and 2 – the rain is both tears of joy and regret as I step into the void and try to fulfill my goal.

    Happy Wednesday to you all and may the sounds of success fill your world with fuzzy thoughts as I try to learn my DAW this morning before jumping back into the rhythm of practice makes…more practice.

  5. @michaelthec #singing "See the tree, how big it's grown, but, friends, it hasn't been to long; it wasn't big"... -- Bobby Goldsborough LOL!

  6. Two things that cheered me up today:
    youtube.com/watch?v=B9gssW7pxv - Slam Stewart and Major Holley. If you've never heard bowed #jazz #bass and especially #singing while bowing this will make you smile. Oh, yeah - two of the greats together. You know all the tunes.
    The other was a different kind of artistry. youtube.com/watch?v=yOzqF7EuXN I thought I was pretty cool in junior high making my #yoyo "walk the dog". Little did I know....

  7. Ooh, I have a new crush. On a song. Husband's comment: "Well, you don't have to be monogamous with songs. Or is that monotonous?"

    Lyrics:

    And I’d give up forever to touch you
    ‘Cause I know that you feel me somehow
    You’re the closest to heaven that I’ll ever be
    And I don’t want to go home right now

    And all I can taste is this moment
    And all I can breathe is your life
    When sooner or later it’s over
    I just don’t want to miss you tonight

    And I don’t want the world to see me
    ‘Cause I don’t think that they’d understand
    When everything’s made to be broken
    I just want you to know who I am

    And you can’t fight the tears that ain’t coming
    Or the moment of truth in your lies
    When everything feels like the movies
    Yeah, you’d bleed just to know you’re alive

    And I don’t want the world to see me
    ‘Cause I don’t think that they’d understand
    When everything’s made to be broken
    I just want you to know who I am

    And I don’t want the world to see me
    ‘Cause I don’t think that they’d understand
    When everything’s made to be broken
    I just want you to know who I am

    And I don’t want the world to see me
    ‘Cause I don’t think that they’d understand
    When everything’s made to be broken
    I just want you to know who I am

    I just want you to know who I am
    I just want you to know who I am
    I just want you to know who I am

    My Thoughts

    I definitely remember this music video / song back when it came out.

    I probably got a cassette single that had this song on it.

    And later I bought the entire music album.

    It has been in my music collection since then.

    The end,

  10. I saw the #solareclipse of August 2026 from #Drachenberg in #Berlin, with about 80 percent #coverage. If an observer, like myself, is situated in the Moon's #penumbra rather than its #umbra, they see a #partial solar eclipse. L. A. Aguilar et al. (2025) showed that many of the #birds studied responded to the solar eclipse with #dawnlike #singing.

  11. What Is Your True Voice?

    Reclaiming your voice isn’t necessarily about becoming louder. It can be about becoming more honest with yourself. It can be about allowing yourself to feel what you feel, express what you truly think, and give yourself permission to be seen and heard. It can begin with something as simple as a breath, a sound, a hum—or a willingness to listen inwardly. Your true voice may not sound the way you expect it to. It may come through singing. It may come through speaking. It may come through movement, emotion, silence, or simply knowing what feels true for you. For me, discovering my voice has been a journey of coming home to myself.
