I have been raising 4 daschund puppies, and man it’s REALLY hard trying to pedal when 1) they like to crawl under the pedals (especially in flat) and 2) they love to nibble on toes!

My first dog, a terri-poo named Mike, actually seemed to learn the end of pieces.

A free puppy to the first 4 harpists who call……LOL!

For what it’s worth (a very long story) I am now babysitting a passel of daschunds for a sick friend….and between my own daschunds and his (along with the pregnant mother’s 4 puppies) I have 9 longhair miniature daschunds running around here.

Yes, Jerusha…..it was in the cheese section.

With reference to my earlier post, after playing the performance this afternoon (which was even faster than the rehearsal, due to the nerves of the soloists and choir) I have decided that I will write my own requiem, entitled REQUIEM VIVACE,

I feel I should jump in with a few words of advice about performing this piece.

That reminds me of an old Saturday Night Live sketch, where they sang a version of SEND IN THE CLOWNS “that was translated into French, and then translated back into English from the French.”

Thanks for the heads up, Sherry.

I play Canon almost 100% of the time, but as a processional for the attendants.

I’ve used a Crate Taxi for probably about 10 years.

Printed tempos are getting faster, too…..I was handed an INSANE choral piece in 7/8, an 8th note = 220!

Thanks for the heads up on the Orchestra light.

[David Ice]

That’s great advice…..and it’s a fine line.
