Okay, so it's exactly ONE WEEK until my recital next week at the Cali School of Music. Hoo-ray! Though I've hit approximately 584 snags, me and my crew of awesome musicians have been chugging along. This show is gonna ROCK, I can feel it.
So, for those who are interested, the program will consist of a solo guitar piece, a short piece for marimba and vibes, two jazz tunes, a piano trio, a solo piano piece, an intermission, a choir piece, a string quartet, and four songs. Bitchin'.
Stay tuned for more.

Well, my friend suggested I should write about other things...
But I can't do that while the header reads "Music and Such".
Though 'such' can imply that I'm writing about other things. Like my birthday tomorrow.
Anyway, I'll be going out of town for a couple of days, to the city of brotherly love. Gonna check out the local music scene while I'm there, and of course, gonna hand out some CDs and keep working on my "electro-whatever" tracks. Yeah! Maybe when I'm done, I'll put out a download-able E.P.
Oh, and guess what?
My senior recital is going to ROCK! Spring 2010!!

Theremin Mania!!
For the longest time, it has been my dream to own a theremin. Or at least, it's been one of my dreams.
But then I realized I could program one using Max MSP. Which I am in the process of doing, because lord knows I won't be able to find a theremin player for THE COMP RECITAL OF THE FUTURE. Using the trackpad and something else as an interface, it should work pretty well. Or really well, if all goes good-ly.
In the meantime, check out this nifty video.
(P.S- If you play theremin and you make yourself known to me, I will give you chocolate.)

Pseudo-Vacation Week//THE COMP RECITAL OF THE FUTURE!!
Yeah, I think I'm seriously billing my comp recital as THE COMP RECITAL OF THE FUTURE. Spring '10 ho!!
Well, I'm at home, trying to take it easy for a couple of days. You know, showin' up to work whenever I want* and finally getting around to some choice musical projects is just what the doctor ordered right now. I have a senior recital to start planning for next year. Next year brings many good things- my comp recital, graduation, new episodes of Futurama (ya srsly), and hopefully some kick-ass Double Vision tracks.
So, this is what I've been tooling around with for the last week or two- Max MSP. Download it and try it out. Or if you are interested, I'll see if I can send you my patch that uses an NES controller (hooked up to a USB converter) as a musical instrument. If all goes well, I hope to include some musical Max MSP programs I write as part of an exhibition at my recital.
I figure I'll need the summer to really get the program and other plans for the recital together- I'll be far too lazy to do it over winter break.
