Whilst there are fierce discussions going on, some of the more remote board members still actually play MUSIC. Last Friday I had a great gig with the local group KAIKAI. We did an evening of reading and music telling the Black Forest tale “Das kalte Herz” by Wilhelm Hauff. There were all kinds of instruments on stage. Some pictures of the gig can be found at http://www.kaikai-music.de/fotogal/fotoset.htm Amongst others (look at the Paetzold Grossbass recorder - uaaaarggh!!!) myself can be seen fooling around with whistles and uilleann pipes (am I not a handsome lad?). Now here’s 2 questions for you whistle buffs:
A) What 2 whistle brands do I play?
B) What will happen to my fingers if I don’t improve my finger posture?
If you think you know the answers, please email offboard to Christian.Roch@slogan.de. I will reward the 2 most comprehensive answers with: 1) A copy of Mally’s “100 Essential Session tunes” plus 1 D whistle or 2) 2-whistle “surprise” set (1 D & 1 other key). FREE, of course. I thought this would be a nice way to contribute something “valuable” to the board (as well as promoting myself a bit…)
Enjoy your day
Christian
