  1. 🎶 ☠️ 💙 Some pleasant music to ease into the evening.

    For music nerds, "Spaceflight" is a piece in 6/8 with ostinato (repeating pattern in the bass.)

  2. Love this movement of my #viola and #piano suite, Nevermore, so much (featuring Charlotte Goode)! Edgar Allan Poe’s “Annabel Lee” was the last compete poem he composed before he died.
    “…neither the angels in Heaven above
    Nor the demons down under the sea
    Can ever dissever my soul from the soul
    Of the beautiful Annabel Lee”

  3. 🎶 ☠️ 🤍 So, I figured I could write a piece as good as any Philip Glass piece.

    At the time I wrote this, composer Phillip Glass was getting a lot of buzz. I saw performances of his work and found myself being very critical. I felt I could do as well as any of his pieces.

    As the saying goes, "People in glass houses shouldn't throw stones."

    So, I challenged myself to write a piece with elements of Glass' style and elements of my style.

    "We're here for a moment, that's all we get

    Then it's back to being stardust in the vast firmament

    That's just enough time to find a mosh pit of joy, oh

    And flow with each other at a perfect tempo"

  7. Learned something new: the composer of "Choptsticks" was Euphemia Amelia Nightingale Allan.

    "Today, Allan is merely known because she composed what is now known as Chopsticks under her ‘de Lulli’ nom de plume. It originated as the Celebrated Chop Waltz, published jointly by Mozart
    Allan and a London firm, Howard & Co., around 1877 as a solo and as a piano duet. (Instructions in the duet advised the melody player to use the sides of their hands as though they were chopping something.)" --Karen McAulay, "Women Pursuing Musical Careers," p. 102

  8. Yvonne Bloor habe ich kürzlich eher zufällig beim Notenstöbern entdeckt: Ihre Musik gefällt mir sehr gut. Studiere gerade "Wedding Song" ein (aus: Heartstrings. Collected Guitar Works, vol. 3). Das Stück gefällt mir sehr gut; hier spielt die Komponistin es selbst, großartige Artikulation und Phrasierung:
