Hello Mary, Morticia I am glad you are here.  I am listening to in tune, no students this evening and I don't feel like practicing. What do people do when they are not practicing? |

The city is a process which always veers away from the form envisaged and desired, ... whose revenge upon its architects and planners undoes every dream of mastery. It is [also] one of the sites where Dasein is assigned the impossible task of putting right what can never be put right. - Rob Lapsley

If I would have a second chance to live I would play EEb Bass. I like the idea of not practicing.
I heard a woman playing trombone at the end of last week. She was amazing. They played an arrangement for trumpet and trombone.

Oh bother it all! I shall give up practicing and just improvise. The way I play, nobody's going to notice the difference.

Perhaps this is an admission of the sad life I lead, but I happened to have the Richard and Judy show on the TV this afternoon. They were interviewing Bill Bailey who said that he had perfect pitch, so they asked him to sing a G. Unfortunately, the note he gave was an F sharp. I ran to the piano to check. Just thought I'd mention it. |

Maybe he's tuned to 415? He does look a bit middle-aged (or was that middle-earthed?)

WAFFLE FROM RANDOM PLACES NO.147
(The Bar of the Berglund Express overnight train from Brussells to Insbruck, just past Aachen.)
Well, I can't sleep for the revellers, so I may as well.have a few swifties....
It is utterly bizarre being on a sleeper train in Europe and hearing so much English spoken. Can you all please stay in Blighty when I go on holiday next time?
Any of r3ok's non-UK boarders on my route? When should I give you a wave?

I was googling to see if a Tibetan tenor I heard singing at a friend's house has been performing when I came across a piece in English on a Tibetan site. It includes this which made me chuckle: It's the great Europe overseas Chinese singing contest with the largest participants since the contest started 10 years ago. |

Merely corroborative detail, intended to give artistic verisimilitude to an otherwise bald and unconvincing narrative.
