Dark Side of the Horse by Samson for July 18, 2011

So - that’s how to hit the high notes!

Cleft to Bass……………………..

I recently saw an ad for a pillow that had built-in speakers that you could plug in to your iPod. Are people that nuts that they need to be entertained 24/7?

Some Classical music—Renaissance, and at least one by Beethoven, as well as Bach—used inversion, retrograde, or both, as well as other transformations. I recall that at least one piece could be played by two players, one on each side of the table, using the same sheet of music.

Oh, I remember studying that in harmony and music analysis…all too mathematical for me! That’s why I never play an instrument that takes two hands.

Reminds me of a Victor Borge joke when he was playing William Tell Overture, then turned the music upside down to play it. :D

I like dark and silence to sleep and I normally sleep perfectly, but yesterday I stayed in a swimsuit after my workout and caught a chill (with stat at 84F). I woke up at 1:30 AM and had to run to toilet to blow my nose etc. I slept very little and my weight was down 2 # under my lowest normal reading (@118). I will retire at least an hour early today and will cover with a quilt.
