Visited another friend’s blog, http://figmentsofadutchess.com and discovered the following gem. Marion is a self-confessed music buff to the nth degree. All kinds seem to catch her fancy.I was introduced to the Canadian Brass on Marion’s blog. I commented that I was somewhat skeptical at first, but was quickly won over by the elegance of their music and the theatricality of their musicians. Might I add…they’re extremely funny! I never stopped smiling.
I went in search of the ensemble and found more of the same…with a twist. Long-time readers know that my daughter’s a professional ballerina, hence my youtube choice. Take a moment from the rat race that is your daily life…I did…and let someone else do the work…of entertaining you. You won’t regret it.
Marion’s selection was just as eloquent…albeit more folksy. It’s called Hornsmoke, and features an ensemble of fine musicians from the Canadian Brass. So keep those feet up, pahdners…those peepers peeled…and those audio receivers wide open for an oft-told tale…of the wild, wild, wild west
…now you can return to being…a city slicker…………hugmamma. 🙂
Entertainment comes in many forms and humor may broaden the appeal of what otherwise might be considered staid and old…..
