Hollywood has become too makeup painted and they don't stick to the original story-line.

I'm trying to arrange La Vie En Rose for guitar, piano, and voice.

Excited. I love that piece.

... currently have three measures figured out.

Pray for me.

Of course, you realize, you have to record the final result for us.

I will probably try. I may use it as a recording experiment WHEN I GET MY NEW MICROPHONE!!!! *squeals of joy*

I invested in a Blue Yeti, which is a USB microphone... so it will be of higher quality than the one of my laptop (which is decent) and it will be easier to position close to the voice/instrument... as opposed to trying to hold my laptop up to my mouth or awkwardly hover over the laptop as I play guitar.

SO excited! It should arrive by the end of next week, I believe. Plenty of time for me to arrange.

Huorn · 08-19-2011, 09:07 PM

I don't think I am familiar with that one. I am more of a Classical and Baroque listener myself.

Midge · 08-20-2011, 01:04 PM

I learned how to play one line of "Old MacDonald" on a violin -

Somehow, Tess, I think you have me beat.

Many Northern and Mid-Eastern Swedes appears to be part of a politico-maniacal, debatoisis-infected, execrable mob of exorbitantly tempestous and fervidly garrulous malcontents. They dominate Swedish Television and Radio, unfortunately.

Noble Elf Lord · 08-25-2011, 02:48 PM

I want an electric violin... (and hope I'm not repeating myself here.)

*sigh* Only a few days till moving... Comfort is about to end, but then again, privacy begins.

**Mari** · 08-25-2011, 03:44 PM

I'm moving tomorrow. Moved the boxes yesterday already (and I did the driving!) and came back home, but tomorrow I'm going back over there with my bike by train to stay there for 6 months.

***Tessar*** · 08-25-2011, 04:22 PM

Are you excited or resigned?

**Mari** · 08-25-2011, 04:55 PM

Neither. Apprehensive would be a good description. So far, it's been one disaster after another, though the house I'm going to live in looks nice enough.

***Earniel*** · 08-25-2011, 05:34 PM

Hopefully later everything will work out just fine and then maybe you can look back on this disaster-heavy period with amusement.

***Varnafindë*** · 08-25-2011, 09:37 PM

Best of luck, Mari!

I just happened to look at my post count - I'm very close to 2500 now ...

**Mari** · 08-26-2011, 01:42 AM

Thanks

I'm sure it'll all be all right in the end, I just wish they wouldn't make those unnecessary, sloppy mistakes in the first place

Varna, go for it! I'm still working on 10.000, but that's still a long way off.

Gwaimir Windgem · 08-26-2011, 04:53 PM

So, my advisor for my MA thesis in Toronto just friended one of the profs with whom I'm taking classes this semester for my doctorate in DC. Also, the Torontonian thesis advisor is actually going to be at my school in DC in less than a month on a discussion panel. Academia is a small world.

(cough, cough) Don't want to be too pushy, but would be interested to hear a leeetle more about what you're studying.

I recently passed 3,000 with no fanfare... It's kind of like when I was 18 and I didn't want to smoke and it wasn't an election year.

"Woooo....."

**Mari** · 08-27-2011, 10:59 AM

I'm visiting here from my new home. Just can't seem to get wireless to work yet though.
