A Little Weekend Music
Here is a little bit of fun to start of your weekend. We have been listening to the Brad Mehldau Trio this week. They are a jazz trio using piano, bass and drums. They probably are one of the bigger names amongst the most recent of jazz groups coming out and we have really been enjoying them. The low key, soft sounds have really been nice to have as background. Anyway, I found this video a few days ago and I thought it would be a nice compliment to what we had been listening to. It is a jazz piece by John Coltrane called Giant Steps. The author of the video took the music and matched it with the sound of the music to create a really neat video where you can follow the music along with the sound to get an idea of how they match.
Have a great weekend!

Why was it boring Eilidh? I thought it was quite neat seeing how the notes on a piece of paper matched his playing.

Well, not everyone is a fan of jazz, but I think this video is intersting in that shows the musical notes that are being played.
I love this youth orchestra from Venuzuala (Simon Bolivar Youth Orchestra). I hope you enjoy it. The conductor is quite young too. His name is Gustavo Dudamel.
This is Kym Millar’s gramma on her dad’s side.
