Listening and Imagination!
- Listen to the recording, imagining that you’re watching a movie with this music as the soundtrack.
- What’s the mood of the music?
- What’s happening?
- Where is this happening?
- Who is / are there?
- Are there specific points in the music where specific things happen?

Original and new "Sonata for Piano and Oboe" for my class--first full draft.
Go to my blog and take a listen, eh?
It's rough and hasty but it has potential, or at least a chance at potential!ChrisThursday, November 4, 2010

Naught on Bald Mountain
My son Jonnie had his hair shaved off the previous weekend, because his hair had grown so little since his birth about 20 months earlier. The hope was that his hair would grow out more thickly. It is indeed coming in better than before, though of course it's still very fine ginger hair.
To make him feel less alone, I also shaved my head bald this Monday. By now it's already begun to grow out--just over 3 days later. Gosh.

Shots of me from 1986/7!
Hi! Does this person ring a bell? I'm delighted to get back in touch with my classmate Betty, who was an exchange student from France during my high school junior year. Hi, Betty!Note: the caverns pictures are probably Carlsbad Caverns, not Luray Caverns.

I'm now a deviant! Creativity on embarrassing display!
I've finally decided to go for it and put my recent and forthcoming art scrawls, and also possibly creative writing, out for comments and (hopefully) constructive criticism.
I've just begun but if you're on DA you are welcome to stop by and either jeer or cheer.
My daughter Eowyn also has some art I posted yesterday...
