Sakura Salon 03/15/2015 – Jelly Roll Morton. This Salon was held on the road, in New Toulouse! For the event, we went to the beginnings of jazz, and Jelly Roll Morton and his Red Hots. Morton, Jelly Roll (Ferdinand Joseph Lamothe). Jelly often misrepresented the facts of his life, as he sought to play up his role in the emergence of jazz. However, the contours of his early career are now well established. He was born on October 20, 1890 in New Orleans to parents of a common-law marriage. In Biloxi, he ea...

Sakura Salon – 3/1/2015 – Venetian Polychoral Music « Lynn's Wagon
https://lynnswagon.wordpress.com/2015/05/26/sakura-salon-312015-venetian-polychoral-music
Sakura Salon – 3/1/2015 – Venetian Polychoral Music. The city state of Venice sits in a unique place in history. La Serenissima, the Serene Republic was exactly that, one of the few Republics in existence during its period of life. A state based on trade, it was also unique in culture, religion and in music. Music had languished at St Marks, until the appointment of the Netherland’s composer Adrian Willaert in 1527 as maestro di cappela. When Willaert arrived, he hit upon the quite simple solution to...

Sakura Salon – 3/8/2015 – Godspell « Lynn's Wagon
https://lynnswagon.wordpress.com/2015/05/26/sakura-salon-382015-godspell
Sakura Salon – 3/8/2015 – Godspell. John Michael Tebelak originally produced Godspell at age 22 as his masters thesis project, under the tutelage of Lawrence Carra, at Carnegie Mellon University in December 1970. I went to my teachers at Carnegie and asked if I could work at my own special project for my masters’ degree, and they agreed. That following fall, in October, we began rehearsals at Carnegie. With guidance from Schwartz and Tebalak, the cast for the new version of Godspell brought their own cha...

Sakura Salon 03/29/2015 – Franz Lizst « Lynn's Wagon
https://lynnswagon.wordpress.com/2015/06/08/sakura-salon-03292015-franz-lizst
Sakura Salon 03/29/2015 – Franz Lizst. Before Beatlemania, there was Lizstomania! When you think of rock n’ roll, Franz Liszt might not be the first name that comes to mind. But the classical pianist, born over 200 years ago, was in many ways the first rock star of all time. 8220;We hear about women throwing their clothes onto the stage and taking his cigar butts and placing them in their cleavages,” says Stephen Hough, a world-renowned concert pianist. Liszt also revolutionized the art of performance.

Sakura Salon 03/22/2015 – Vivaldi’s The Four Seasons « Lynn's Wagon
https://lynnswagon.wordpress.com/2015/06/08/sakura-salon-03222015-vivaldis-the-four-seasons
Sakura Salon 03/22/2015 – Vivaldi’s The Four Seasons. The details of Vivaldi’s life are surprisingly sketchy. Even extensive modern scholarship leaves many wide gaps in his whereabouts and activities. Biographies typically devote at most a few dozen pages to his career and the rest to his works. Indeed, only in 1962 was his birthdate determined from baptismal records to have been 1678; prior writers had placed it as early as 1669. 1: Concerto No.1 in E Major, RV 269, “SPRING”. Springtime is upon us.

The Science of Cooking - A Steampunk Wren
http://sera-puchkina.livejournal.com/7699.html
A venture into storytelling. The Science of Cooking. Nov 27th, 2010 at 8:27 PM. Today was Thanksgiving. That means food, and lots of it. Cook had plucked the turkey and readied it the night before. She left it on ice in the cold house. Side dishes were mostly ready to go into the oven which I had stoked before dawn. Setting the table the night before saved me precious time. How could that be? I searched anyway, knowing in the back of my mind that it was gone. Maybe my Dear had decided to help out and had...

New Babbage Items of Note. SL New Babbage Timeline. RL New Babbage Timeline. NB Relay For Life. Saturday, November 12, 2011. Icons of New Babbage - Loki's Absinthe. One of my favorite early locales to visit in the days when New Babbage consisted of, well, New Babbage Square, was Loki's Absinthe, a beautifully crafted Absinthe bar, located in the heart of the City-State. If one desired to obtain a bit more for their own locale, there is plenty green goodness to go around! Sunday, November 6, 2011. I wonde...
