Weeks 41-42: Music for Chamber and Church in the Early 17th Century (Part I)
1. Stuff done these weeks - Studied from Burkholder et al. (2014); please find my notes below. - Recorded two songs with Crimson Inc.. - Trying to find a temporary place for my wife and child. In January we have to leave our apartment, which has been sold. Both excited and anxious. Our new house - which shall be built next year - will be great, I'm sure. - Getting the paperwork sorted for the mortgage. - Training for a new system (ServiceNow) for my work. I need to review my old lessons on JavaScript. - Trying to write "Red Wing" (traditional) in music notation. My teacher let me listen to this beautiful version by Mark Howard: https://open.spotify.com/track/35nTsH8eLzlCLLwqKhBybY . I am writing down the melody played by the mandolin. It is coming along nicely. This exercise is good ear training and helping me practice music notation. - Practicing "Arkansas Traveller" , "Saint Anne's Reel" and "Little Rabbit" - all tradition
