Sad Story & then some pics

There once was a monkey named Juan Pedro Eustace Morales Domingo Santa-Bella del a Cruz the third.

He was a very nice monkey.

Then he got mixed up with a bad crowd.

Then he died a horrible death.

My inner monkey weeps at his passing.

Rock Around the Croc: Oratorio

Happy Sunday and welcome back to the Baroque. Let’s talk about oratorio: a large-scale musical work on a religious theme featuring choir and full orchestra. Any discussion of oratorio inevitably draws comparisons with opera, and that’s because they grew from some of the same impulse to heighten the expressive power of text by adding music. The most obvious difference is that opera is a stage play, complete with scenery, costumes and actor/singers. Oratorios are strictly sung, although sometimes there will be minimal costumes. Operas can be on any subject, often mythical or historical, but oratorios are on sacred subjects, with Protestant composers taking their texts from Bible stories, and Catholics doing both Bible stories and lives of the saints. Here’s Handel’s Joshua:

Carin hasn’t told us she hates us all recently.

i assume she’s recouping from yoga or something and trying to get up enough energy to recommence her poison pen ranting again.

Dead Woodchuck Sighting

So Spring is finally here I think. I saw a dead woodchuck on the side of the road, the robins are chirping in the back yard, and i saw an eagle flying around with a large bunch of nesting material or a small child not sure which – maybe both; so Spring.

Tuesday Aural Tragedy

So Car i N pointed us down this path and Sean laid the last paving stone.

Yep – the wonderful world of music.

MMM [Monday Musical Motivation]

It’s Monday and Obama’s on vacation so at least we have that going for us.  I’m not sure how many rounds of Golf he’s going to play but we can be sure that since it gets him out of that bazillion dollar mansion and away from his wife he’s going to play AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE.  He’ll squeeze in the “Bookstore” visit and the “Ice Cream” visit and the insufferable yearly “bike trip”.   But let’s be honest – this is about his royal highness hanging out with his (male) friends “playing golf” as much as possible-NTTAWWT.

So moving-on to the first ever MONDAY MUSICAL MOTIVATION.

It was Mare’s suggestion (was she drinking?) – so blame her.

I’m going to start this slowly. Lessen the shock.   THIS is one of my favorite running songs. It’s got a strong beat (you can’t dance to it) that builds in intensity for the PERFECT running pace.   Toward the end – if you’re not flying down the road you just don’t have any soul. The heavy sound was created on this album was made by plugging the guitars into bass amps.

There. Now that we’re warmed up I can move on to something a bit peppier. Well at least the folks on the video are dancing around … we’ll go with that.

These cool dudes played around here recently but I was probably working a fake double.

Now – for a bit of cold reality.

Depressing song but the BEAT – man. I can lift to that.

This is the song I always use when I need to finish strong.

Here’s a little zumba motivation. I was working both days during the final weekend – and it was slow – so I put the games on all the teevees in the bar and got to watch a lot. The gals were fun to watch – then the guys started competing.

OMG

So I’ve got an 8.5 mile run today then I work tonight.   And the laundry room? Have you SEEN THAT? OMG.  Nothing trashes my house like me working all weekend. Ugh.   Ok. Let’s hit it folks.

Update: Extra motivation

Elf on a Shelf

Tis the season. Enjoy!
