National Poetry Day, day seven
OK, story time. In high school, I attended a summer music camp several times, and then in college, I served there as a camp counselor. This was almost your canonical summer camp, with cabins in the woods and campfires and … Continue reading
Something for Thursday
A small suite of film music today, from Ridley Scott’s underrated film Kingdom of Heaven. (The film is underrated because this is one of those films where the “Director’s Cut” is actually a vastly different, and distinctly superior, product to … Continue reading

An unabashed love poem by Christina Rosetti. This is one of the more heartbreaking poems I know, because it unflinchingly stares at the certainty that all love must end, and that the inevitable ending provides those left behind with terrible … Continue reading
Symphony Saturday
All right, we got a barn-burner here. Seriously, you’ll be needing good speakers and you’ll be wanting to turn them UP, especially for the last movement. Today it’s the Symphony No. 3 in C minor by Camille Saint-Saens, better known … Continue reading
