I Love to hear you Singing

After a long search, I finally got the printed music for "I love to hear you singing." Now I will work on an organ arrangement of it. Many people have recorded it.. mostly likely because of Jesse Crawford's recording. There are several on youtube - including Crawford's. I will listen to them but will make my own take on it.

Second Touch

I have not really used the second touch on my 311 effectively at all until now. I have worked two two short counter melodies in "Sunny Gets Blue" and it sounds great.

YouTube

I was going to make some videos of myself playing some older tunes (but not in public domain) and place them on youtube. I have decided against it because of copyright problems.

OMG.. it makes me cry

I have been working on an arrangement of "Johanna" from "Sweeney Todd." It is such a lovely and haunting melody it makes me cry when I play it.... not because I play it so well.. just because of what the music is. It is not a piece I would play for everyone... but Sondheim lovers will eat it up!
