My thoughts on the latest Humble Choice subscription games!

Another from a long list of hotels and apartments that I get to stay at whilst working with various ensembles and orch

Well... I guess it is more technically two bows in the mix. A little while back, I was writing about a shorter lighter bow that I was trying out as a good second Baroque bow. I've got a good spread of

Sigh... this was something that we had been putting off for quite a while. Our house is currently surrounded by various piles of rock, mulch, and other things that we have been using for our amateur

Unsplash Oh why oh why did we do this to ourselves???? As part of our ensemble's vision (well, my wife and I...) to bring together people to just enjoy playing music... and a taste on our take on Early

Okay... I really want to get this recording done and wrapped up! We did the actual thing at the end of last year, and the edit/mix last month. And we have been sitting on two versions of the final mix

I have been on the look out for another general purpose Baroque violin bow for a while now... I have a really nice one that I got about 25 years ago... and at that time, it was supposed to be in a risky

Hmmmmm... we have a nice new harpsichord, a single manual Flemish model with two 8 foot and a single 4 foot choirs of strings. And apparently, our living room can't stay in this formation... we are going

Our concert weekends can be a bit hectic... on the music side of things, we do run a pretty fast and tight schedule. On the Saturday, we have two calls of rehearsals (2 times 3 hours)... one in the morning

Sigh... a combination of overloaded work schedule, a sore leg, and lots of rain from storms... mixed in with a healthy dose of strong days of hot sun... well... the backyard project has gotten out of hand!

Okay, this is definitely something that I should have done a long time ago... one of the more annoying design decisions on the Steam Deck was to have the USB-C charging port on the top of the machine...

Well... the day finally arrived, our ensemble core (my wife and I) did a recording at the end of last year... and we have been scrounging time in between various projects and just being parents to get

Ahhhhh... the house technology cascade! My wife had a pretty nice XPS15 that she got from me many years ago when I upgraded to a really nice gaming laptop. But thanks to Windows 10 support coming to an

Unsplash I'm a musician... and mostly performing... but I do do (hehe...) some teaching at the local university, both ensemble and individual... sometimes to do with my specialisation of Early Music, and

One of the nicest things about being a husband-wife ensemble core... and without a "business"-minded board... is the ability to just do whatever we want without needing to run it past non-musicians
