Hi M,

Your email came when I was in the amazingly beautiful Stanford Memorial Church listening to yet another very beautiful concert - Stanford Baroque Soloists: 17th Century German Masters - The Wild West of Western Music ... https://events.stanford.edu/events/817/81741/ -  under the guidance of Anthony Martin ... This ensemble of Stanford students more than any other musical group there I can think of, consistently makes very lovely music. Claire Xue on violin particularly made the music fill the space above and all around - wow.

So glad you're making music with your recorder group (having left the flute behind for the time being :) ... You may well play beautiful Baroque recorder music in the vein of Arcangelo Corelli's - https://youtu.be/0RzxzTmIpyc - but am curious whether you'd ever explore blues' recorder (if not blues' flute:) ...


https://youtu.be/0RzxzTmIpyc -

Seeking to play a bit with a metronome, and daily from home socially though (so in a Google Hangout?), ... as I develop my Scottish small piping CD ... and find a way between a perfection-focus, a vision of playing technically  perfectly, and, say, this High Level Ranters' album of 1964 highlighting Northumbrian piping - https://twitter.com/TheOpenBand/status/1101004484019277824 - and possibly from a folk ethnomusicology perspective containing much more re northern British Isle's musical idioms +++ - and creating my own moving music (Grateful Dead made lots of mistakes from some perspectives, for example, but I also listen to them among the most because their music is moving, by way of comparison:). Re playing and listening to moving music (which I do a lot on internet streaming radio channels these days - and re 'folk' music), one way of saying the above is I think I'm seeking to develop not classical music approach to this piping CD (and I'm not planning on playing any Piobaireachd on this), but rather a musically MOVING kind of folk approach.

& re ... https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2019/02/gobies-scott-macleods-honey-in-bag-cd.html ...

Are you able to go walking today re snow?  Thanks again for your email. And I hope your weekend goes swimmingly (if the snow melts :).

L, Scott
