Teresa U - Twin Phoenix - TnT's Comments

Yup! still hanging around the Kommunity . . . I'm tougher to get rid of then the common cold.  Glad to see a few of the old regulars checking in this week, presumably in response to the blitz message "NEWS & UPDATES" that I sent out.

Don't be a stranger . . . we've got enough of those around here already.

STAY BEAST!

a stop motion video for you!

Was missing you, so I am writing you a missing you note. Hope all is going well for you. Hope the Job is great.

Hugs,

Jeanette

I feel terribly ignorant. I assumed the term 'art song' was associated with the abstract, aleatoric, and atonal. After looking up what they actually are, I am indeed a fan, but didn't recognize the title *facepalm*. I am also a fan of Bach (check my user photo :)). Do you speak any of those languages outside of song?

Oh recitals, anyone having gone through those has my respect.
Woo high school. I was never a chorus kid, but I did sing with the chorus for 2 concerts.

I'm trying for Hartt's composition program. I'm still going to transfer to U of H in the fall anyways, hoping taking music and art classes (I got all my gen eds [save for 2] out of the way at my current school, so hopefully that will free up enough time for the double major), applying for the art school (graphic design/illustration) for spring semester. While I won't have playing recitals, I'll still have jurys and that makes me squeem. Oi, look at me talk on and on about myself..

I love musical theater and opera :). Art songs can go either way I suppose, but everything that comes to mind when I think that phrase isn't so great, lol.

Yay classical-based programs! The program I'm trying to get in for composition is also classical based (I didn't make it this year because I flubbed my playing audition. My compositions I had to send in, interview, and aptitude testing all went well so I'm hoping the deans will be cool with me basically taking major-related classes anyways).
What kind o' choir do you want to teach? Church/high school/college/etc.?

I'm not learning basics in terms of playing and reading sheet music, because I have that down (band since 5th grade); so in my lessons I get pretty much free range in the pieces I play provided I can improve my technique with them. I do lean towards the classical, but that's also because I prefer classical music :).
One of the pieces I was working on pedaling with recently was To Zanarkand by Nobuo Uematsu
I'm also in a rock band and play keyboard for it.

I do play piano. Technically for over 6 years, but this past year is the first I've actually started taking lessons to nail down technique.

You're also a musician I've noted (har har har). What kinda stuff if your favorite to sing? Play anything else?

Happy Birthday Teresa!! :)

NCIS is my favorite show too, right next to Monk and Good Eats.
I've had many thoughts of naming the son I hope someday to have Jethro.

thank you :D

exactly, i do love it a lot, but i am considering picking up a music degree just so i can play in a group haha

No, sorry, I'm not in a band. But I do sing and play piano, and being in a band would be fun.

thank you, that picture is much like my personality for sure lol yea i do play the oboe, bassoon, english horn, flute, piccolo, violin, mandolin, and guitar...over achiever i know lol but oddly enough i am not a music major, i'm actually an art major, i love both art and music, but i prefer to play music on the side for personal pleasure :)

Hey Teresa! I've been insanely busy trying to get myself graduated (2 months left!) and getting promoted at work...good 'problems' to have, but it's leaving me with zero free time.
I'm not sure if I ever congratulated you on your graduation; good job!!! And teaching in Thailand...you are far too cool/beastly, my friend!
How goes it with you?

Oh im sorry about that, i wasnt really sure which one it belonged in. Thank you very much for your help :)

Thanks for the birthday wishes! - Theresa
