First singing session today. Four voices. We had a try
out on the song Un-me.
Then I played a movement of Gustav Holst’s The
Planets, in a two-piano arrangement made by the composer. It was a great joy
to play two-piano music with somebody. I haven’t done that since the day I left the music conservatorium!
I have been to a pocket-sized bookstore called Mord +
Musik. I first misread the name as Word and
Music until I realized that most of the books were crime novels. But I was
deceived by the owner who displayed Big Fish and a couple of T.C. Boyle’s novels on the shelves. I discovered
a nice selection of CDs by practically unknown artists beside Sigur Ros and Ryoji Ikeda!
The guy seemed interested when I asked him whether he
would listen to the music I’ve done for W.H.A. To top it all, he also he owns a small recording label. It could be funny to be one of those obscure artists whose
records you only find in this one shop at the other end of the world!
