Music Forward

In keeping with the theme presented in the last post - but not in too straight a line, because I'm twisted like that - today I'm not going to say a lot, and just let you enjoy this. I always loved the cello, and now I can show you why. I chose this particular piece, even though it takes a bit to get really started and the video quality isn't good, because it shows the artist's process - which I, at least, find fascinating.

One note, for those interested: the Teenage Thug is very good, as expected, and although the audience was small, the performance last night went very well. Tim Sailer is brilliant as Salieri. If you get a chance, see Amadeus this weekend, and say 'hi' to the kid. He'd love to meet you.

So here we go. "Legions", by Zoe Keating. Enjoy.

The performance of Amedeus was brilliant - I'm going again tonight (for the third time). There were rave comments from everyone around me. It was truly a professional production. One of my friends thought it was better than a lot of the plays she's seen at the Guthrie. You can be proud of the Thug!!

Hi - if you like cello check out Jami Seber - http://www.magnatune.com/artists/albums/sieber-unspoken/

I think you'll like her. She was recently a guest musician on a friend of our's album. Breathtaking... T.
