Tone Poem Tuesday
A repeat today (I think), but it’s been a while (I hope). Felix Mendelssohn’s The Hebrides is a concert overture, inspired by the composer’s journeys in Scotland and specifically his tour of the Hebrides islands and a basalt cavern called … Continue reading
The Strooping of the Waffles! (Or is it the Waffling of the Stroop?)
So, like many others in this COVID hellscape, the search for entertainment of a more cheerful kind, to take our minds off the dystopian virus-afflicted nightmare world in which we live, has led us to The Great British Baking Show. … Continue reading

Roger has been blogging for 16 years, so in honor of that, here is Chopin’s Prelude No. 16 in B-flat minor, opus 28, for solo piano. Give it a listen, it’s all of a minute long! Surely you can manage … Continue reading
Something for Thursday
Today is Willie Nelson’s birthday. He is 88 years old. Sheila O’Malley has more on him, but suffice here to say that he’s one of the great geniuses of American art in the last century. I truly believe this. His … Continue reading
Tone Poem Tuesday
One thing I’ve always believed about writing is that if an idea doesn’t work out in one piece, that’s no reason to put it aside forever. I’ve reused a lot of my own ideas over the years, a practice I … Continue reading
Images from an April
April is a strange month around these parts. I’ve maintained for years that of Buffalo-Niagara’s four seasons, spring is the worst. Summers can be too hot and humid, but are mild compared to the South or the Eastern Seaboard; our … Continue reading
