Okay, listen up. I'm not Karen. Karen's...ahem...on the way (I hope!!) Karen's my sometimes shy, master violin-teacher-wife who (like me) is slowly, but surely, warming up to "Web 2.0," as some of the post-1994 Internet stuff [podcasts, videos, mp3s--all that good stuff] are referred to.
And, hey, we're in no hurry! Soooo, until she's ready to drop in (which I think might happen on this coming Friday, February 27th, 2009) I thought I'd get the ball rolling...uh...the music playing (sorry!), especially since I am the one who's doing the nailing and hammering (Creating this blog; creating her Squidoo page, and, eventually, creating her long-overdue website!)
So, what are we going to be doing here? Loving! Loving about anything violin; loving about music and arts education; loving about violin and music performance; loving about music history; loving about musical instruments, musical books, musical accessories, musical trends, musical tips, musical lips...musical lips!!? Well, you get the idea.
Hey, nuf said! Until next time, enjoy some Sarah Chang--and let the music play on!

ReplyDeleteI thought you may enjoy the TED prize winner this year, hear is a link to a video featuring Jose Antonio Abreu and his wish to "Help me bring music to kids worldwide" http://www.ted.com/talks/jose_abreu_on_kids_transformed_by_music.html
And here is a video of some of the music:

Thanks, Jay, for your help in getting us started on this! And Abreu is a real inspiration. I think that kids who have less are ripe for appreciating the gift of music. Hopefully, this site will provide some inspiration as well.
