Hi!
That is lovely. What are the hanging down yellow things? Ken

Hi! I have been keeping up a tradition my late wife followed. On every first day of the month, and before noon, I say "rabbit". As I am on my own in lockdown this is a bit nutty. It take me back to my childhood when we pinched and punched each other while reciting "a pinch and a punch...

Thanks for your comments Den. You sound just like my little Bruv who is 90 years old. He always has a witty response to my stories. That's why he always attracted the girls Ken S.

Finlandia was composed by Sibelius and widely used across the world.

Hi!

A piece widely used around the world. Finlandia played on my EL700 organ

That is a masterful video Hugh. I am still finding my way around PhotoStage so can't begin to emulate your standard. Also I marvel that you can remember all the tune in your head as you do not read music. Its a skill I envy.

Having recently produced a video of my version of Schubert's Ave Maria, I thought I would post it for this Sunday. There are countless numbers of this hymn bearing the same title, by many obscure composers. I suppose Bach's one is the only other I know. Ken S. TBA0MpapOfU The MP3 can be downloaded f...

Hi!
Very popular in the war as sung by Vera Lynn.

Hi!
A piece very popular in the war. Sung among others by Vera Lynn.

Really lovely Ken S.

Hi!
Its coming up to Sunday again so looked for a change This is my Utube rendering of a composition by Benjamin Godard. It translates to " Angels Guard Thee" Composed in 1888 as part of the opera Jocelyn.
regards Ken S.

Hi!
A lovely piece of music and great video. Well done to both of you. Ken

HI
A great thanks to Hugh for his efforts. It enabled me to produce videos that are reasonable. I am still on a learning curve but improving by reading the blog.

Hi! Den
An interesting subject. What do our members think? Ken

Hi!
Thanks for that clear description of how to set up making a video. I have found another good site for pics.
Just google pexels. Had a few problems with some items disappearing but seems to have resolved itself.
By the way it becomes compulsive so getting to bed very late. Ken

Hi!

MAGNIFIQUE. Ken S.

Hi!
You can get many a good tune out of an old fiddle. Well done Ken S.

Hi! With Sunday upon us again I thought to make a change I would submit a religious ode. Ode to Joy was composed by Beethoven as part of a major work. The Lyrics were written by Schiller in 1785. The music has been used,as anthems, by various countries and organisations over the years. Ken S. https:...

Hi!
Here is another attempt to post a video Ken S.

PhotoStage Slide Show

Hi!
I am experimenting with this programme. Having uploaded 2 videos I am now unable to upload more until I buy it. The free bit is to produce a video but not do anything with it. I suspect I am hooked. regards Ken S.

Hi!
A video created by Hugh to accompany me playing the Yamaha EL700 organ. A piece by Strauss. Ken

Hi!
This my first attempt at a video. Fingers crossed. Ken

You got to be kidding Ken S.

Hi!
I have uploaded to the religious page a hymn. In it I have made use of the expression pedal and stretched
the timeline to create some passion in it. I like to think this is an important part of performing which is
largely overlooked. Do members share my view? Ken S.

Hi! Its nearly Sunday again so would like to give this old hymn an airing. Have used the Expression pedal and stretched the time line to create the atmosphere of pathos associated with this piece. Also added Andre Rieu's version for interest. Ken S. https://app.box.com/s/9zhn68taacqlfemptcxvmjr2gl1k...

Thanks for your kind comments. Ken

This is a wonderful waltz composed by Strauss. " Voices of Spring ". He was known as the master of the waltz.

Hi den. I've never tried bondage. Are you an expert Ken

Whats a chord ? Ken ( tongue in cheek )

Hi! I feel that subject of chords falls in the remit of this topic. I never did learn to recognise labelled chords, sticking to the traditional piano method. For me the chord symbol is a mathematical nightmare. Having the notes on a stave enable inversions, augmentations, etc to be freely displayed....

Hi! Den As a sight reader I am unable to think of a simpler way of informing a performer what to play. All we need to know is the name and position of 7 keys. A to G and their representation on a bit of paper. Then these are repeated across the entire keyboard by adding a number. ie middle C is usua...

Hi!
One I played as a virtual visit to church during lockdown. The Lord Is My Shepherd to tune of Crimond.
