I slept last night!

So,
I did, and it's cold out, which may be somewhat of the cause. Well, perhaps more so the cause was the long-ish rehearsal last night for the Albuquerque Philharmonic Orchestra that I have recently begun playing with. Anyway, we rehearsed last night for a concert that we will be playing on Sunday. A friend of mine kindly told me that the two basses sounded like a whole section of six. Oh, he is kind. . . never the less it was nice to hear because I often wonder if my instrument can be heard because many times I cannot hear it and I am standing next to it, ugh.

Well, I have been working away on my composition, and getting feedback on the completed movements. It's been a joy, but a slightly stressful delight to work on this piece. I can't wait to actually have it performed and truly share what it is that I hope to convey.

Oh, I want to let you know that my website is sort of down for a minute. I am back in the tech trench trying to (wow, 5 t's in a row!) choose (heh) a solution for putting up my site again. I had a web host that I was happy with once upon many years ago, but they were bought out by a larger company and their service went south, way south. So, I've cancelled it and redirected the site here, for now. . . Any suggestions would be welcome. I am considering a cms, but it's all kind of overwhelming. I want something that's intuitive, reasonable learning curve, simple, and has some good templates. Wow, what a tangent that was. But seriously, if you have any advice, I'd love to hear. This site is easy to blog from, but it's simply just a blog. Had I chosen WP, I would probably have made it into a site, but I did not.

Hmm, this may be a bit of a boring post, but it's what I've got on my mind. Oh, also, does anyone have a piano tuner (local, 505) they can recommend? I feel like this is some sort of a rant rather than a musical madness blog, well, maybe it is my musical madness that has me seeking a piano tuner that does not currently have H1N1, true story, btw.

Have a wonderful weekend, I will be taking a brief break from music creating, 'til Sunday that is. Until then. . .

only woke up twice last night,
undeniably me.
