MUTTERINGS - MUSINGS - MEANDERINGS. Monday, 13 July 2015. A Little History of Clapping. There are other ways of expressing appreciation in public than by slapping your hands together but I can't think of a better one. It is the obvious thing to do at the end of a performance or speech. Is it as simple as that? Is it worth a second thought? Where does it come from? Audience numbers increase. Perhaps get the audience clapping over with at the beginning of an event and then forget it. Heckle and cla...Rando...

Mutterings, Musings, Meanderings: Comedy Cuts
http://billanderton.blogspot.com/2015/04/comedy-cuts.html
MUTTERINGS - MUSINGS - MEANDERINGS. Friday, 24 April 2015. I wasn't back home quite as late as expected from the KOKO and the Bonzo's gig last Friday, but it was still pretty late, especially considering I had to be up for conducting our local orchestra first thing in the morning. The lack of sleep did not, to quote Wooster, make me exactly disgruntled in the morning but I was far from gruntled. Worth it, though. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Welcome Lover of Music.

MUTTERINGS - MUSINGS - MEANDERINGS. Thursday, 14 May 2015. The Contemporary Music Project (CMP) website was becoming a collection of items of general interest, news items and reviews, confused and mixed up with my personal stuff, teaching work, compositions and writings. As each of these areas has become quite substantial in its own right and to avoid confusion between the two, they are now separated. The CMP has become an independent magazine-style website www.contemporarymusicproject.org.

MUTTERINGS - MUSINGS - MEANDERINGS. Monday, 22 July 2013. Music, Memory and the Mind. Eine Kleine LP Music. Is such a smash hit TV show - how can they remember so much and seemingly recall it at will? On a more sublime level, memory plays a huge roll in making music. Not only for every rehearsal and concert do you have to remember to take music stand, music, instrument, loose change, route map, remember timing and what to wear (and, . Nota bene, . Hand your music in again after the show).
