12:38 am

momof5

I can’t count how many words I’ve had to reenter bc autocorrect didn’t think they were real words… at least not by Babble standards.

12:38 am

m9f9l

12:39 am

cybernan

cybernan

I knew the word from my string quartet days

1:09 am

hokie carla

there is also a pe5/22

1:09 am

m9f9l

mab, it played on the radio when I was little, and the announcer gve the wrong title, so my mom called and corrected him. He said "what a terrible name for such a lovely piece." so it's a little family lore :D

1:09 am

cybernan

have that one also

1:09 am

mab

oh nan - what instrument do you play?

1:11 am

mab

it is a little abrupt, but surprised an announcer didn't get it right. funny. and yay for mom.

1:11 am

cybernan

used to play a violin - but haven't touched for over 40 years -- bow warped after sitting in the case for so long in the same position and I don't feel like putting out $800 for a new one

1:12 am

m9f9l

It was the college station

1:12 am

mab

oh gosh - that's so great. I love the strings so much.

1:12 am

m9f9l

Oh no!! Poor violin chan!

1:13 am

m9f9l

Sorry.. youtube channel reference

1:14 am

mab

I love the whole thing. great podcast is sticky notes - a conductor walks listeners through pieces of music. love it.

1:14 am

m9f9l

Two australian men are bringing classical music to an audience that some wouldn't have listened to it otherwise. Pretty cool. Twoset violin

1:14 am

mab

oh I love those guys m9191!

1:14 am

m9f9l

Oh cool, I'll have to check out the sticky notes

1:15 am

m9f9l

So do I

1:15 am

mab

once the penalty was writing on twitter how much the loser loves viola. funny.

1:15 am

cybernan

also the pegs have dried and shrunk so they are too loose to hold - tried rosin but that didn't work. Can't buy new ones because the instrument is about 150 years old or more and they need to be hand made. It was given to me by a friend of my grandmothers - it had belonged to the friends husband and had come with them from Germany -- that's as far back as I know it's history.

1:16 am

mab

that's just fascinating, nan.

1:16 am

m9f9l

How interesting nan. Too bad you can't get it into playing shape.

1:16 am

m9f9l

twoset sometimes does things on their violin repair guy. Fascinating

1:17 am

cybernan

I could - but it would be very expensive to do so, m9

1:17 am

hokie carla

reminds me of a Charlie Daniels' song called "Talk to Me Fiddle". look up the lyrics.

1:17 am

m9f9l

So it's nickname could be lautrec. hehe. too loose..

1:19 am

mab

i like to hear violinists talk about violins, which great musician played what. strad or del gesu, etc.

1:19 am

mab

i can't even play the recorder.

1:20 am

m9f9l

My Dad said he could only play the mantlepiece.

1:20 am

m9f9l

Or sometimes he would say the linoleum

1:21 am

hokie carla

I can play the recorder and the flute

1:22 am

m9f9l

I like my alto recorder

1:22 am

m9f9l

But I don't play it much

1:22 am

mab

cool carla. i start and stop trying a lot and worry about the neighbors hearing.

1:22 am

cybernan

also play the recorder - it was part of the music curriculum when I was teaching elementary school

1:23 am

m9f9l

I can somewhat sightread for the piano

1:23 am

cybernan

also play piano and chord organ a little

1:23 am

m9f9l

Mostly I sing

1:24 am

m9f9l

I got a ukulele but I learn something and then don't poke at it for a while and forget it all again :)

1:24 am

hokie carla

my dad gave me a fiddle several years ago to learn (he & my oldest brother played in old time bluegrass bands for years). I learned a couple of easy songs but didn't stick with it. violin/fiddle is hard to pick up in your 40s.

1:24 am

mab

i'd like to take music theory class. not sure i'd keep up when it comes to key changes and a million other things.

1:24 am

m9f9l

I'm teaching one student in voice right now, but it's hard during tax season to find time for things.

1:25 am

cybernan

I think I would be starting all over again at 80 - practically impossible!

1:25 am

mab

still, nan.

1:26 am

hokie carla

you all might like a podcast called Strong Songs. That guy knows so much about music theory I feel so stupid about it.

1:26 am

mab

if you love it...

1:26 am

m9f9l

And they still won't let us start up again the choir at the senior home yet..

1:27 am

m9f9l

average age of the choir was well over 80! :)

1:28 am

hokie carla

I really should go to sleep. good night, y'all.

1:28 am

m9f9l

I found the cutest youtube video the other day of a woman playing and singing....bless her heart :)

1:28 am

mab

to bad... i like choral music so much.

1:28 am

mab

too, i mean. night carla.

1:28 am

m9f9l

I sent it to my pianist..so I remember what it was!

1:29 am

m9f9l

night carla!

1:30 am

cybernan

stuck with 9 left -- will have another look at it tomorrow. Good night everyone :)

1:31 am

mab

the arts keep me going. esp. music.

1:31 am

m9f9l

The youtube video was called "Then Since the Savior Came". The low notes just tickle me... maybe she smokes?

1:31 am

mab

night nan. violin dreams to you.

1:33 am

mab

oy. what i'd give to sing or play something.

1:35 am

m9f9l

You can always become a better singer

1:36 am

mab

would be fun to try.

1:37 am

m9f9l

I really miss the big choir I was in years ago... we have a little choir in my little town, but I can't ever make the rehearsals because of the timing :(

1:39 am

mab

there was a babbler long ago, wren something, or something wren, and she and husband were in choirs and competed. Brits I think.

1:39 am

mab

older.

1:44 am

m9f9l

Fun. I've done a few things here in this town. I usually sing a piece in the Messiah every year.. but again, not since covid.

1:45 am

m9f9l

We did a Rogers and Hammerstein revue and that was so much fun.

1:46 am

m9f9l

But I've done a lot more at the tax office the last 4 years since my husband can't do his old job, so I just haven't had the time for that.

1:47 am

mab

musicals - also love. sondheim said that if hammerstein, who took him in as a kid, was a geologist, he would have become a geologist.

1:48 am

m9f9l

Funny.

1:53 am

m9f9l

I still listed to the choir I was in on youtube because some of it is on there. The Christmas concert from 1993 was one of the best times I've had singing. https://tinyurl.com/3njpru4t

1:54 am

mab

will definitely look i up.

1:56 am

m9f9l

What do you generally listen to?

1:57 am

mab

classical almost always. jazz sometimes. brahms a favorite.

2:00 am

mab

all music's pretty great to me

2:02 am

m9f9l

I tend to go to certain pieces over and over..

2:04 am

m9f9l

I got my last P! yay monkeys!

2:12 am

m9f9l

fw

2:12 am

mab

weeeee!

2:13 am

m9f9l

How are you getting along?

2:14 am

mab

slow. not concentrating and should sleep.

2:14 am

m9f9l

Same.. but now I'm listening to music :)

2:15 am

mab

what's playing?

2:17 am

m9f9l

Just finished ebben ne andro lontana from the Diva movie. And now Brahms: Wie Melodien zieht es mir, since you mentioned Brahms.

2:18 am

mab

so good. remembering that movie. radio has schubert, symph 2.

2:21 am

m9f9l

Ah, I think I'll listen to that next then! Frankfurt radio symphony. I love youtube.

2:22 am

m9f9l

Such a pompous beginning :)

2:23 am

m9f9l

I should add this one to my wake up list. Along with Liszt.

2:24 am

m9f9l

got any sleepy recommendations?

2:26 am

m9f9l

I guess I could go with your Yo-Yo Ma Bach

2:42 am

mab

oh yes. ma's last suites. lurve bach and that recording.

2:46 am

mab

bach, get outta here. if heifetz was god's fiddler, bach was practically god's voice.

2:47 am

mab

or nina simone or kiri te kanawa.

2:49 am

mab

but what's so important? doing wordle and going to sleep. night.
