Hello!


I've included quite a few of the videos and text wishes done for 11/11/11 because I really loved those and think they are worth checking out. :)

We had a prompt in my fiction writing class about what blue was to us, so I thought I would share my thoughts about my most favorite color ever here.


Blue is...

She wakes from dreams of lust.
He slips into a deep sleep.


Passions remembered and passions invented
He will remember nothing of the passions they invented

This is the first choral arrangement I've ever done - so there are probably many issues. I apologize if it's clumsy or not what you were expecting. Since the sonnet was written by Shakespeare in the 16th century, I thought I would attempt to match the style of a contemporary musician, Thomas Tallis - I hope some of you familiar with his work think I got at least a little close!


 


I'm also sorry for the glitches here and there in the recording - it seems that musescore (the program I used) has those sorts of issues.


 


If you happen to have a 48-person choir that fits the requirements of this arrangement ((which is a classic 16th Century cathedral arrangement slightly modified by the addition of one female part in each choir - 8 choirs each consisting of 2 boy sopranos, 1 alto (preferably adult female, although a boy soprano could also sing this part, but it wouldn't be as strong as I would like it to be), 1 tenor, 1 baritone, and 1 bass))  and you wish to record your choir singing this in a public performance - then so do I. Once we get to that point in the conversation, I'll send you the sheet music through less public channels than hitRECord.

Littered sprinkles colored in autumn fashion,
Unveiled the trees in leafless subtraction,
What contrived contraption set this in action?

A  dark stage. All is black. We hear two voices.


 


CHILD: It’s dark.


 


OLD WOMAN: Yes, it’s dark.

i stupidly read Pammy's text request and didn't watch her video before RECording... so i didn't know how long to stay still for and the ensuing awkward staring contests with myself you are about to witness may simply be too much to bear.....

bunch of background noise but I won't have quiet until late tonight and I wasn't sure if that would be too late. Hope this works, Pammy. Good luck with your project!  <3

Remember. On the 11th day of the 11th month at the 11th hour.


People in Commonwealth nations wear poppies in the weeks leading up to November 11th to remember those killed in wars. The poppy was chosen because it was the first flower to grow on the battlefields after WWI.


John McRae, a Canadian military doctor, wrote his famous poem "In Flanders Fields" from the front lines in Belgium during WWI. You can read about it here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/In_Flanders_Fields


Remembering the war dead doesn't mean supporting war. Soldiers are not politicans. They join because they want to serve their country. The politicians decide where they go and what they do when they're there. The desire to serve and protect is an admirable goal. Be angry at our leaders who send these people places they shouldn't be, and mourn those who fall or were injured because they chose to serve. Careers of military men and women span decades, through governments and leaders.


Remember those who sacrificed their lives through wars. So many were lost and those who survived had their lives changed forever. Because they fought, we can be here now, creating and sharing.


Lest We Forget.

When she looked, she didn't find a pea. She found a pod of whales instead

I aplologize for taking a while to REC these. For Page 65, I did not really try to do anything much. Page 67 still needs more improvement and page 91 remains the toughest one to read, but I will keep at it :) Thank you very much for your advice and support. Again, if there is a way that you believe I can give it more UNF, please do say so.

I produced a production of Twelfth Night which was performed a couple of weeks ago and this is the timelapse I arranged of the stage-build- it's a four metre manual revolve.


Thought it might be useful if anyone does any remixes around building/revolving/spinning etc.

After the rain, the uneven pavement collects so much rain you have to hide behind the bus shelter when the bus comes. If you don't want the water that just cleaned the gutter to splash all over you, that is.
