...but not around where we live -- our end of Richmond got away pretty unscathed. On the other hand, 20 percent of the Richmond area has been without power for the past eight hours or so, there's a lot of street flooding, a couple neighborhoods had to be evacuated, and football games had to be postponed (gasp!). It's not a lot of fun, certainly, but at least it's no Isabel.
--- Music? Without handbells? Pish posh.
Occasionally, because I am that wild and crazy of a guy, I will write music that does not use handbells. So a couple weeks ago, I finished a choral octavo for the hymn "Sleep! Holy Babe," which I've always liked the words to while finding the music ho-hum. (Which is why, y'know, I came up with my own music.) So here is a decent midi realization of "Sleep! Holy Babe," with strings covering the vocal lines and harp covering the harp/piano part.
i sincerely do not know what you are doing here. are you lost? were you
looking for your delicate calico cat, and did you follow her up two flights of stairs
to this room? she is not here. she was here, yes. we gave her a warm bowl of milk, we talked with her about campaign finance reform for a time, and then she bid us good day. i believe she was
going to the post office two blocks down, but i don't quite recall.
for surely you did
not find your way from prinsiana, the least traveled site on
the internet. if you did, though, perhaps you are looking for humor. perhaps you are looking for profundity. perhaps you are looking for answers.
i'm sorry, but you shall go naught-for-three.
