The Carriage House

12 Jul

Boxes are unpacked, curtains are hung, and most electrical items have found a home near one of the few outlets, with converters in place. A few pending projects still remain – my desk and “office” will be in place early next week and assuming we find some type of adhesive hook at the hardware store, Steve’s Ansel Adams black and whites will refresh the kitchen’s plaster walls. I do believe this is beginning to feel like home!

Letterpress « music, poetry, arts [transcribed] - January 9, 2011
[...] Folks, I have just discovered the letterpress. I need one. I am starting my Christmas list today just so that I can add it, even if I do have to wait 350 days. Of course, you already know about my obsession with typography and well, letters and numbers in general. This vintage wood block from Etsy has my name written all over it. Think about the possibilities – cards, notes, notebooks, postcards, programs… I would even send out Christmas cards for the excuse to play with this machine! It’s fate, really. You see, Steve gave me an antique letterpress printer’s tray as a birthday present a few years ago. See the image here. [...]

Authenticity – Part II

Some of you may remember my first post on authenticity a few weeks ago (read it here). It’s something that’s been on my heart and mind a lot since then, enough that I thought I needed to say a little more about it. First of all, some exciting news: I’m building a new professional website [...]
The Children’s Concert

I love working with young children, particularly when we have the opportunity to sing! In my experience, most 4-year-olds are confident, adventurous, effervescent music-makers and they learn new things so quickly! When the opportunity arose to share a free program of music with a group of children from the community (ages 3-5), I was eager [...]
WCMW: First Look!

As some of you might recall, Steve and I co-founded and co-directed the first Westminster Chamber Music Workshop last summer (recaps here and here). A week-long series of music events for the community alongside a chamber choir workshop for adult amateurs, we wrote a few grants, built a website, contacted the press, brought in guest [...]
The Music of Christmas

This week always seems to catch me by surprise. I mean, I know it’s coming. I’ve been planning for Christmas since July. And yet, here it is with its three service bulletins, special music, last-minute meetings, extra rehearsals, and the like. Yes, it’s a busy time but what a privilege it is to share music [...]
A Day in the Life

I am a freelance musician and largely self-employed. I have five part-time jobs, all in music. Christmas is the busiest time of the year. What does a “normal” work day look like? Let me give you a little glimpse! Tuesdays are generally a balance of church work, private teaching, and a little administrative work for [...]
