"Technical Talk" Page Sports a New Document.

11/28/2010

0 Comments

 
I've posted a discussion on Ohm's Law using pie charts to help explain. The document is on my new "Technical talk" page under the "Blog", then "Career" dropdowns.
There has been a lot of activity on my "Career" pages, so I've decided to post some interesting and hopefully helpful information from time to time to better address the interest in these pages.

A Reminder to Visitors Taking Theory Quizzes.

11/27/2010

0 Comments

 
Just a reminder to those visitors who elect to take one or more of the music theory quizzes. Be sure to check your answers by pressing the "click HERE" link just below the "Submit" button located at the bottom of the quiz sheet.

Common mistakes in the first quiz have to do with checking off the improper F Major Scale. Be sure to
review the Theory Page before taking the test if you're not sure.

As always, Thank you very much for taking the time to try your skills at these quizzes.

I've posted an analysis to the first five measures of a piece I composed for orchestra on the Theory Page. It's at the bottom of the page. Using the page down key is helpful.

Lots of Visitors Already this Month!

11/8/2010

0 Comments

 
Just a quick note to thank the many visitors so far this month from such far away places as France, Spain, Austria,  Australia, New Zealand, Italy, Singapore, Ireland, United Kingdom, Canada, Iceland, Russia, Islensku, Kuwait and also from Pianoworld, Fiddlehangout and Fiddleforum and always, of course, the good old USA.
 
Thank you for your wonderful and encouraging comments regarding my stringed quartets and quintets and also for all the attention paid to the recent arrangement of my composition titled "My Autumn Waltz". (I've actually been asked for an arrangement for 4 violins, 2 violas, 2 cellos and a contrabass.) :)
 
Also thanks to the many who are visiting my "Music Theory" page.

Audio Files Added to "Fiddliferous" Page

I've added a few computer renditions of some of my fiddle tunes to the "Fiddliferous" page. Just an idea of how they are intended to sound and the speed at which they're played. Give them a listen and saw through a few.
