I am pretty keen to start producing a CD this year. I have three pretty solid ideas for CDs that I *want* to do, and there are advantages and disadvantages to each concept. I decided to bang some of these out and possibly get some input from those who are tuned in to my psycho-regurgitations…

(Hopefully a LOL or two will be had by folks who choose to read…)
So, this was an interesting day. Today looked to be the only day this week that I would have a chance to get in to work, between the snow and being away for Farpoint this weekend. Things actually started off relatively smoothly. [...]

So it has been almost 3 months without a posting or a Royalty Free Music podcast! Distractions have been high, and look to continue at least into March.
The house remains vacant. Although, I did just finally receive what looks to be the first decent response to the Craigs List posting. I am hoping to get [...]

So the 15 week Introduction to Music Theory Class I taught at The Maryland Academy of Music wrapped up last week. I had a nice little graduation ceremony for the students and presented certificates as well as professionally engraved editions of their final project compositions. I learned quite a bit teaching this class, and know [...]

So the bulk of my relocation tasks are complete. I also needed to take Thunderball (my Mac Pro) to have an AirPort card installed to take advantage of the wireless network here at the new place. I just brought it back and hooked it up moments ago. I can tell it’s a lot faster. And [...]

This is the first group class I’ve ever done, so I’m looking forward to seeing how it develops…

The release schedule for Royalty Free Music Collection offerings will be sporadic over the next 8-12 weeks.
I am currently in the process of moving and getting my house ready for rental. Shortly after this process is done, I’m going to be in the middle of the busiest time of year for work and will probably [...]

I seem to be on a bit of a Haydn Kick these days. Two out of the past three podcasts have been pieces by Haydn. He is one of my favorites, but I’ll make sure not to choose another piece of his for at least a little while.

One of my low-priority tasks for the web page was to have random composer quotes show up. Well, I just found a really nifty wordpress plugin for doing this, and I managed to incorporate it very easily and I think this will be a lot of fun. Currently there are 15 composer quotes and I [...]

Farpoint went quite smoothly for the first convention in our new home. I even sold a few copies of the mp3 disc version of the two audiobooks. I will be doing an announcement quite soon when I have it available for purchase online. I need to finish giving the business page a facelift and test [...]
