Harvard’s dunster opera society and bach society orchestra are performing Copeland’s the Tender Land this weekend. This is awesome (to me at least) and I am going on Sunday at 3.
Here’s my relationship to the piece: i once got into district regional chorus, which was awesome and crazy and competitive and we had […]

Last week i made the decision that i am absolutely sick of iTunes. i used it because it fit the bill and did more than other programs i had been using and had more information visually available, even if i hated referencing the iTunes store for everything and i hated the limited browsing of podcasts […]

I’ve been listening to a new Pandora station that I’ve titled “Can you Feel It (Shame).” The songs that input the station are all based on funky disco stuff that generally makes me happy and productive, and while i sit at my desk i get to bop back and forth while doing work.
Occasionally the tune […]

Nothing says amazing like a groovy song that creates the world. What’s awesome about the full theatrical music video of The Jackson’s Can You Feel It is that there are numerous sci-fi movie sounds, including some from Star Wars. Serious. Michael Jackson shoots stars out of his head into the sky.
The video is […]

For some reason I never really considered how old Prince is… he’s an amazing musician who i absolutely adore, but I never really thought about it. I am often amazed by artists with amazing longevity and independent creativity (which I was thinking about over the weekend while listening to Queen). I hadn’t realized that Prince’s […]

Last week I got a chance to see The Birthday Massacre over at the Middle East. Nothing like an industrial/electronica/goth band to bring a smile to my face. Envision lots of monochromatic clothing and black eyeliner, and you’ve pretty much got the crowd down pat. Only 2 corsets though, so I underestimated on that account.
Anyhow, […]

So I’m back at work after having trudged in through the snow. I’ll give you a little update. I didn’t post at all last week. I was busy finishing up my coursework for the fall semester. It’s all done now, which is a big sigh of relief, and I even got feedback and a grade […]

So once upon a time i could fancy myself a singer as something I did for some modicum of income. It’s a funny thing for me to think about because I love singing and getting paid for it seems weird in some ways. I get to have fun and enjoy myself while making some […]

i don’t suppose you keep up on Chinese pop music, but she retired from the business, and unlike Celene Dion, I don’t expect her to be making a comeback in Vegas. I occasionally think about this when i realize how much of a black whole there is for interesting talent among Chinese female pop singers. […]
