Sage Wisdom

"Good improvisation communicates harmonic progression melodically. Effective melodies manipulate harmonic content through the use of guide tones and preparatory gravity notes, masterfully woven in systematic tension, release, and transparent harmonic definition."

July 31, 2006 | How to Beat the Heat

Hot enough for you? Physicist and amateur mandolinist, Debbie Harris reports in her Quantum Diaries Blog last year, slinging a mandolin on a July trip to her visit her grandparents Florida home. Seems a little mandolinning is high on her list for enduring the seasonal Southeastern inferno. Packing for the airport, it's the limit-one carry-on dilemma, "Mandolin? Laptop?"

Both.

Not ready to drink the Kool Aid of Al Gore's latest cinematic sky-is-falling grandstanding, but it is hotter than normal this Summer here in the midwestern US plains. No Porch Picking for a while, we're heading the the basement.

The good news? Our freshly-crisped lawn means one extra hour of playing; mowing gets a reprieve, at least for this week!
