Folks thanks to Daniel’s hard work the site is back up. I’m a day behind, so I am hoping to do News and Views much later today, begin next week’s blog scheduling tomorrow and have it done Saturday, and then get back to finish chapter 7 on Saturday and Sunday.

It was stuff that was happening prior to the beginning of the recording… I did something so stupid and absent-minded that it amazed even me, and if you know me well you know I can do some terribly stupid and absent minded things. So anyway, I was laughing at myself when George Ann started the show, and it made it that much worse.

Folks please be patient with me on this book. It’s a very dark topic, and I have to take breaks from it just for peace of mind and soul, plus in addition go through so many things to focus on data points few other books on this topic have focused on. The philosophical approach I’m taking to this is also slowing things down, and I’m not sure as a…[Read more]

Thank you for your willingness to grapple with the dark. My prayers are with you.
-
Go for it Joseph, we will wait patiently.
-
Is it about ancient religions and practises derived thereof? those get pretty dark pretty quickly..
-
Well K, I think you might be on the right track, I sort of thought that religion might be the target here.
-
Well, if we were playing “hot and cold”, you’d be lukewarm, or perhaps, room temperature.

Well some good progress today on another “dark” chapter, chapter seven.

Actually I’m taking a break with some of my own compositions right now, weird as that sounds.

… well I am about ready to plunge into chapter seven after gathering notes and blocking it out and making sure few others have relied upon the sources I am using in that chapter.

Take a JS Bach break! The classical music channel just uploaded ‘3 Hours Bach Harpsichord Concertos’ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BphKIBpih1M

Hi Constance and welcome… glad you’re enjoying the site… we have a pretty savvy and diverse group of people here.

And finally, the Scarlatti… check out Fuga del Gatto (the “Cat Fugue”), and the last sonata, in d minor, my two faves from this album:

Wow! I was not expecting those arrangements. Very well done! Great composition really does translate into all sorts of arrangement.

And another Bob James synthesizer treatment of another Baroque master, Jean-Philippe Rameau: Another one of my favorite albums:

Lest I be thought a purist, I DO enjoy JS Bach on other instruments than the ones he wrote for, IF it’s not done simply as a means of substituting the ever-present carpentry for the appropriate instrument, but as an exploration of “other possibilities”. Here’s one of my faves, the concerti for two and three harpsichords, and orchestra, arranged…[Read more]

Ha! So far, she’s been good with my music when I have it playing on the stereo, and when I’m doing something like working at the computer, she usually just lays down and watches, or sleeps, so we’ll see. Years ago though I had a little dog who, when I would practice on an old electronic keyboard which I sold years ago, she would sit and do…[Read more]

Well, finally! I just received a PICTURE from the organ builders and it finally looks as if progress is being made.

Joseph, since Shiloh is a very vocal puppy, I wonder what she is going to say when she hears it for the first time. I can just see her singing along with some Bach.

I was wondering if there would ever be any progress on it soon, but I hate to keep bringing up such a sore subject… -
Are you ready to turn your house into a resonating cavity?

So are going to do a video with the new organ when you get it? I think we all would live to see you and hear a tune.

Well, your confidence is greater than mine. I’m taking an awful chance with this book, approaching a popular subject from a very philosophical point of view.

Well I’m going out to the end of the twig here, but maybe it will be a New York Times best seller.

Thanks Daniel !! Here’s hoping that this was truly a “technical problem” and NOT an orchestrated effort against Giza.
