Your Daily Dose of Christmas
In memory of my friend Robert John Guttke, I present one of his favorite works by a composer he dearly loved. Gerald Finzi was a British composer who lived from 1901 to 1956. His best-known output is primarily choral, and … Continue reading
Your Daily Dose of Christmas!
Never let it be said I don’t take requests! In comments to yesterday’s post, a reader asks about the possibility of the hammered dulcimer making an appearance in this series. I confess to not being familiar at all with this … Continue reading
Your Daily Dose of Christmas!
OK, today I provide a public service, if you so desire. You may be familiar with a game called Whamageddon, in which you try to get as deep into December as you can without hearing “Last Christmas” by Wham!. Why … Continue reading

Tone Poem Tuesday
I still feel like we’re trying to come up for air…which means, how about some more Rossini.
A Shrouded Moon
Taken the other day: More posting on the way, I hope! It’s amazing how much work there is for the living to do when someone has died.
Coffee memories….
I’ve become pretty good at making coffee over the years (I’ve even written about all my various methods of preparation). While it took me a long time to get to drinking coffee, I have to admit my mother’s influence on … Continue reading

My mother missed outliving Henry Kissinger by just eighteen days. She would have liked to see him go.
