Sunday Morning.
It is raining here in South Florida.
We are lookin' for upwards of 6" of God's rising tide.
But we can hold it all. Bring it.
(well except for the damn leak, I meant to fix last year.
Damnit to hell, but hey, it's only once a year.
Now,
I would suggest setting down with a cup of your choice and
just hear these cats (they used to say 'gone cats' back in the day).
They are playing J. S. Bach! Note for Note!!
(He is a Famous Dead Guy!)
These gone cats
are full on.
(just my opinion, i could be wrong)

- email punchnojudy@gmail.com, love being alive, the alterntiative has lousy hours, liberal and don't care if you give me cracked corn.
Classical music isn't my cup of tea (not that I ever drink tea), but these gone cats have the chops to handle any genre they choose to try. I listened to a few more songs before making this comment. I wish the sound had been better on the vid with Paul Simon/The Boxer, but they still do a much better job on it than I do ;-)
ReplyDeleteI listened to 'The Boxer' even with the bad recording the music came through. Thank you.
DeleteI saw the Punch Brothers earlier this year and I'd go see them all over again, even if y'all aren't related! Heck, I'd adopt them so they could be related to me...
ReplyDeleteThey are on my list of shows to see.
DeleteDitto Intelli. Punch Bros. headed by Chris Thiele, virtuoso mandolinist. You will never find better musicians.
ReplyDeleteBTW... been watching (hearing) Chris since he was about 17yrs old and playing with the big boys at Merlefest. For years with Nickle Creek and now on his own. I've seen these guys twice and would go every day if I could.
DeleteThey've impressed me.
DeleteMusic is music, why shouldn't a bluegrass band play Bach (and do so really well)? A few years ago, I heard a classically trained violinist play "Dueling Banjos" on PBS. What fun!
ReplyDeleteWelcome back to Florida. Stay safe from tornadoes (I heard there were some warnings today down your way).
I guess you didn't get a chance to stop in Munich for the Spencer Tunick picture: http://www.nydailynews.com/news/world/nudes-kick-german-opera-season-spencer-tunick-installation-article-1.1101213.
That are work is a powerful statement, on so many levels. thank you for the link.
DeleteI have a few more from Germany, visited a castle. Someone still lives there.
This is one of my favorites and definitely to the note. Good one, cat!
ReplyDeleteMay all of your Martinis be dry.
Shaken not Stirred.
DeleteProbably one of the best concerto's if not the best concerto for strings ever written. First I'd ever heard with gutar and mandolin though and I did love it. It is the music after all and the performance. Now you have me thinking about a tub bass in there.
ReplyDeleteThe tub bass would be the cat's meow.
Deletewell, they are amazing!! are you sure you're not related??
ReplyDeletethanks for this nice gift of music and virtuosity.
You are welcome.
DeleteToday, I went to the beach front with my kids. I found a sea shell and gave it to my
ReplyDelete4 year old daughter and said "You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear."
She placed the shell to her ear and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear.
She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is totally off topic but I had to tell
someone!
