All I can say is wow, that is great.  I can't imagine learning to play one of those organs.  I'd love to go hear someone play the one they restored at the Paramount sometime.  Thanks for posting this.

This is a great thread! ... and one of the reasons I asked to join this forum.

I've been listening to some old tapes today, one of which is Solitudes CHRISTMAS CLASSICS. It's not your usual Christmas music -- I found it is a science store in a local mall. No voices. There's one piece by Bach that is my favorite: Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring  The first time I heard it (when?) it was as if I already knew it ... like it had always been there in my head.

Hi Libby!

I love that one too, learned to play it decades ago when I studied classical guitar, and feel the same way about Bach - that everything he did I somehow knew.

Hello, Y! So you studied classical guitar! I am impressed!   :music1:

Post by: Y on December 14, 2011, 06:47:35 PM
I liked nylon string guitars (usually classical) when I first heard them and was in to folk finger picking.  What prompted my entry into the classic guitar was way back in the day I had an old radio that had short wave and exploring that I came across signals from Europe with flamenco and classical guitar.  I became enamored of it and when I finally found a classical teacher, I'd ride my bicycle 20 or 25 miles there and back with my guitar on my back every Saturday to take lessons.  He finally earned a professorship in classical guitar and stopped giving public lessons, and classical guitar not being that popular I had to take it on my own from there.  I never became greatly proficient, the standard of proficiency for the classical guitar being very high and requiring a monomania and lifetime commitment, but I still play well enough.  As a matter of fact, my classical guitar is here in its usual handy place, by my chair, and gets manhandled daily.   :biggrin:

What an fascinating story  :yes:

I have no training in music and don't play an instrument. When I was a girl I spent all my spare time drawing and stargazing. Didn't like the music I heard at home and church. Then, in high school, a good friend introduced me to classical, and from there on I just followed my ear.

I was into art myself, studying it in High School, and even got to the point where I was beginning to sell some of my paintings but I left FLA. and all my art supplies, moved to L.A., and then Berkeley before moving back home to IN., and never took it up seriously again.  I'll still draw off and on, but music took precedence in my life. 

I used to love looking at the stars.  You didn't happen to have the Little Blue Book of Stars too when you were a child, did you?  I searched for years for another copy of that book and finally found one a few years ago and lost it, and tons of other irreplaceable books, in a fire three years ago.

In high school I took a Music Appreciation class that was taught by a fantastic teacher.  She not only turned me on to folk music, she turned me on to classical music, and I was never the same after that.  She opened up whole worlds for me, and the sad thing is, I cannot even remember her name.  The education she gave me is one reason I'm SO against the removal of the arts from education.  The Arts are FAR more important to a child's education than sports, but they keep sports and remove the Arts.  Pffffft!   :mad:

 8 :laugh: Everything I know about art (like music) is also self-taught.  I started drawing in grade school, and liked to do faces. Everybody thought I'd be an artist, but I was already poor, and 'life'  had other plans for me.

As for the Little Blue Book of Stars, it sounds a lot like the one I have - somewhere.  I came across it while I was unpacking books after a move a few years ago. I don't remember the title, but it it's dark blue. When I was 21, after a major emotional upheaval in my life, which began  with my father's death, I built a telescope from scratch -- meaning I walked around a barrel for a year, grinding and poiishing the concave "mirror" for a 6 inch, 100 power reflector. Found the instructions in a friend's Mechanics Illustrated. My family thought I'd lost my mind.  I had help in that a carpenter friend built me a sturdy tripod, another friend made the body of the 'scope from an irrigation tube, and another put together the eyepiece for me.  The biggest surprise of all for me was when one of those friends took me and my telescope to a high mountaintop near Beckley, WV and we aimed it at the moon, and it worked! But it's too big for practical use. Where I live, there are too many city lights. But I still remember those dark starry nights in West Virginia.

:yes: I would imagine they're all still there.

I say that because I have a book, Musicophilia, by the neurologist Oliver Sacks, and his first case study is about a physician who was struck by lightening and died, saw the white light and didn't want to come back, but did, and a few weeks later, had an intense desire to play the piano, which he hadn't done since he was a boy. (That's all I know because I put it aside and forgot about it until I read what you wrote ....)

I miss that book!

I've never made that detailed a telescope, but I still have a small one though I haven't used of late.  It was going to be too cold to even think about sitting outside and watch the meteor shower this morning.  My first wife and I rented a farmhouse back in the day and had a magnificent view of the western sky at night, very little light pollution at the time.  Saw some very interesting things.

I was spoiled by those dark southern WV skies. I tried all kinds of things. Once I decided to photograph star trails. A friend loaned me a camera with time lapse function. One dark cloudless night I went out to the back yard and aimed it at the North Star and left it for hours. Took the film to the photo shop, and they called me and said there was nothing on the film. I said "develop it anyway." When I picked it up, was delighted to find star trails in concentric circles around the North Star. I still have that picture!

Star trails!  It's been decades since I've done that.  I think I used an old Brownie or black box Kodak and just aimed it at the night sky and left the shutter open.

BTW, I see where you said you like Glen Gould.  There was a program about him on PBS some time back.  It was interesting.  You might Google up PBS and search for it, you may be able to watch it online.

Well, good luck with that. There's a lot out there to tune in to. Most people where I live have cable provided by the county. It's a bit expensive and those boxes are unsightly, but we get a wide range of high to low class 'everything' in just about any category you would want, and that includes music.

We have an antenna now and watch on-air tv, but storms have done quite a bit of damage to it over the years and a new one will get us even more on-air channels. 

We'd tried both cable and dish and became sick of paying for a lot of crap we weren't ever going to watch.  The consumers should be able to select what channels they want and not have pre-selected packages shoved down their throat.

Even though I may watch the 700 Club every once in a while to see what that crazy Pat Robertson and the religious right is up to, I neither need nor want to pay for a dozen or two religious channels and be forced to support their insanity by default.

Yes, I have the same problem with cable. To get the programs I want, I have to buy bundles which give me a lot of stuff I am not interested in.

Speaking of religious programs, I don't watch them. Except ... when I find myself alone on Saturday night, I tune in to a channel out of (I think) Anderson, Indiana that carries the Gaithers - Bill and Gloria, and their large group of southern gospel-type singers -- and go back to my childhood -- I know the words to almost every one of those songs, because we sang them in the little church close to my home. If they get too sappy, and/or somebody is singing that I can't stand, I turn the sound off and watch the rest of the singers. I have one favorite: Guy Penrod. He's the tall hippie-looking fellow with the beard and long hair. And there's one other person who doesn't show up very often, who sings a song that sends shivers over me and makes me cry -- it's Squire Parsons singing "Beulah Land."

They come here to George Mason University every spring. I went once, probably 10 years ago, and was stunned at the crowd and the enthusiasm. Every single seat was taken.

Yes, I have the same problem with cable. To get the programs I want, I have to buy bundles which give me a lot of stuff I am not interested in.

Speaking of religious programs, I don't watch them. Except ... when I find myself alone on Saturday night, I tune in to a channel out of (I think) Anderson, Indiana that carries the Gaithers - Bill and Gloria, and their large group of southern gospel-type singers -- and go back to my childhood -- I know the words to almost every one of those songs, because we sang them in the little church close to my home. If they get too sappy, and/or somebody is singing that I can't stand, I turn the sound off and watch the rest of the singers. I have one favorite: Guy Penrod. He's the tall hippie-looking fellow with the beard and long hair. And there's one other person who doesn't show up very often, who sings a song that sends shivers over me and makes me cry -- it's Squire Parsons singing "Beulah Land."

Their Homecoming concerts are great. I watch the Gaithers sometimes, too. My daughter was acquainted with them when she lived here. She says they are very nice friendly people.

Having known the Gaithers, been in their studios, and known people who worked for them, I have quite a different opinion of them.

I also have a jaded opinion of 'Southern Gospel' having grown up on the real gospel tradition, Mahalia Jackson etc., and understanding where white folks came by the tradition and how little they - especially Gaither and his 'Homecoming' crowd - acknowledge the debt they owe all while they exploit the hell out of it to line their pockets and marginalize traditional gospel artists.

Huh. Hadn't thought about that. But, since I have absolutely no training in music, I just listen to what sounds good to me at the moment. I am an emotional person, and like many kinds of music, including but not limited to classical. I like folk music from all over the world (especially Russian). The sound of bagpipes stops me in my tracks and makes cold chills go all over me. So does the music at the Renaissance music festivals in Maryland, especially when the flutes and bagpipes are joined by booming drums. Makes me want to get up and dance and chant. I made two 200 mile round trips this week, and on one of them I played favorites from Puccini. On the other it was a chamber music group, the Guaneri Quartet, featuring Walter Trampler, Violist,  playing Dvorak. I like Yes, especially Close to the Edge. I like the Beatles and Gladys Knight and Aretha Franklin and Mahalia Jackson. "I love that nutty movie, The Blues Brothers, :blues: because of the music.

And I think I'm talking too much.  I could've said, I like all kinds of music, but sometimes I just get carried away. :music1:  :music1:
