Comments on: Deese, dem and doe’s http://www.alexshapiro.org/blog/?p=326 nature and music in the San Juan Islands, from composer Alex Shapiro Thu, 09 May 2013 22:20:08 -0400 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.5 hourly 1 By: Glenn Buttkus http://www.alexshapiro.org/blog/?p=326&cpage=1#comment-225111 Glenn Buttkus Thu, 15 Jan 2009 14:33:19 +0000 http://www.alexshapiro.org/blog/?p=326#comment-225111 Another fine trip you have us in, Alex. Enjoy the fellowship, and perhaps you will do some business as well. You know maybe the deer like the birdseed because when they arrive as a pair, they are referred to as "doe-doe", and this confuses them. Your wildlife preserve and wayward beasts refuge never ceases to amaze we city folk in America. And again, since a television does not sway you, or divert you ,it the windows of your domicle that come to life with the denizens of the forest and field. Listening to the musical clip; EvensongPrelude@ 1:37 makes us crave more of the Evensong Suite, in all its 1999 glory, 40 pages of music, 17 minutes of music, broken down into six movements. Incredible stuff. Music for the gods, and we heathen too. Jannie Funster wants to write a Ukulele song, and some of us are submitting comic lyrics. Have you ever heard Folk Uke? It is folk group made up of Cathy Gutherie and Amy Nelson. Have you ever used a ukulele--soprano, concert, tenor, or baritone, in any of your compositions? (surprised I did my research on the plucked lute?) Glenn Another fine trip you have us in, Alex. Enjoy the fellowship, and perhaps you will do some business as well.
