Olivia warms the cabin
Always fun for Papa to tag along with the musical talent of family or friends. Here Liv forgoes her classical training and prime instrument to humor me with sight reading tunes she's never heard and doing it on my $30 camo fiddle with a bow without resin. I hope she will do it again.
Inquiring Minds
Anthony Archibald is an online friend who lives on the Isle of Man, in the Irish Sea. He is a prolific musician with many enjoyable offerings on Youtube. Sings with guitar and autoharp and more. https://www.youtube.com/user/threelegsoman
As I brought on Anthony's latest song/video, "It's Good To See You", Millie, sitting on my desk, began to clap and tap in rhythm, and grin. Of course as she saw my camera, she was a distracted and toned down her musical involvement. Then as further distraction/interest, brother Ethan entered the scene with his enthusiasm for learning and sharing some things he'd seen me do with my camera. So here we have Millie, multitasking much better than I can, between Ethan and camera, and Anthony and autoharp. Mostly I am just impressed with the interest level of these kids - when the time is right. To me, it really is inspiring and encouraging. And to Anthony - Thanks for your continuing flow of music.

Joy in the Jubilee
Joy In The Jubilee was a celebration of 50 years of the South Cottonwood Stake. This 15-minute video is not of the performance itself, but of the production work and involvement of so many members of the stake. The soundtrack is not the music of the performance, but intended to fit the involvement documented here.
Full enjoyment can be had by selecting the HD highest resolution your computer can handle, or even full screen on some computers.
