Prélude n°1 aux tubes musicaux (boomwhackers)



Here's something you don't see every day with classical music, especially something so entertaining.  If I'm not mistaken, it sounds like Bach's Prelude in C which was a favorite from piano lessons many years ago.

The harmonic series in music | Assaff Weisman | TEDxNYIT


This talk refers to a Bobby Mcferrin demonstration called "Watch me play the audience" and explores the universality of music by examining the naturally--occurring phenomenon of the harmonic series. It makes use of a demonstration of the principles of the harmonic series, presented by Leonard Bernstein as part of his Norton Lectures at Harvard University in 1973.

Pianist Assaff Weisman’s solo and chamber music performances have taken him to some of the major venues in Europe, the Middle East, and the Americas; from Lincoln Center and Carnegie Hall in New York to the Beethovenhalle in Bonn, and Rudolfinum in Prague. He is frequently heard on radio stations across the United States, in music ranging from Bach to the present day. His 2002 release of an all-Schubert recording for Yamaha’s “NYC Rising Star” series quickly became one of its best sellers.

AND THE WINNER IS… America’s Got Talent 2018 Winner!!



Every now and then I'll catch bits of this show and find a few performers that show great talent.  This is the first year I've watched an entire season and was truly impressed by the finalists.  

I have no doubt even Zucaroh will have a show of their own.  Tyra was right to choose them as her Golden Buzzer...

Catherine Tate & John Barrowman DOCTOR WHO Panel - Dragon Con 2018



Catherine Tate and John Barrowman did their first panel together at Dragon Con 2018 and you can check it out here! As Donna Noble and Captain Jack Harkness on Doctor Who, they thrilled Whovians with their performances and each has a great body of other work that people love.

Catherine Tate was a companion of the Doctor named Donna Noble, but has starred in many other works like her own Catherine Tate Show and The Office. John Barrowman was not only on Doctor Who as Captain Jack Harkness, but played the same character in Torchwood, plus has been seen in many other shows including the CW's Arrow and Legends of Tomorrow.

In this panel, they talk about their time on Doctor Who, first impressions, craft services, fan experiences and so much more.
