No other has that fluffy mellow haunting trumpet sound of Chet. And his singing voice in his late years was to marvel at for the expression he was able to carry.
Not a reader of the dots yet in his early playing years he was able to play in many bands of the day without fault.
Chet a truly amazing musician by anyones standard.

It is a special day - we had a new fireplce fitted earlier in the week and I came into the living room and thought this looks so welcoming - but every day is a special day.

ANGELA HERE - Each Member of MPS has their part (however small) to play on MPS to make the Daily Whole exponentially better than the sum of the parts ! Where would it be without MIKES Paintings - FAYS incredible Poetry - STEVES Spiritual input - JOKER 44s Qirkiness and YOUR eclectic choice of Music to satisfy our souls. This is why (despite limited Time) BRIAN & I try to visit & comment every day. To us it is the best Poetry Site (on line) ever !
Thanks for the VIDEO ! This is an elegant piece but I find LISZT much more difficult than CHOPIN. Lang Lang is one of my fave pianists. He makes it look easy and sound sublime. Love the Picture & the Poem. Uncle MIKE with His perfect Paintings & quirky Poems light up MPS every day for us - He is a GEM !
Blessings & Peace to You & Yours
Love Angela & Brian 💛💛💛💛💛

The island is there because you believe in it, i guess it;s a part of your faith.
I\'m smiling thinking about one of your previous pieces about a drug. Well i think the drug we\'re high on is working for both of us.

ANGELA HERE - Good Morning !Thanks UNCLE ANDY I found your video (Rachmaminov 2) and your poem very uplifting as I face another day of Ministering to People with broken dreams & limited mobility. Many of my clients tell me *You have the hands of an Angel* which is very true ! My Parents christened me ANGELA (Spanish for Angel) that I might be used of GOD in the World ~ AMEN. Back to the Poem. In all our minds there is *A Beautiful Isle of Somewhere* where Peace reigns and we will all be reunited with our Loved ones again ! However we will only be there when we pass from the PHYSICAL to the SPIRIT(UAL) dimension. I follow the accepted Catholic (Biblical) Doctrine in this matter - OK.
Blessings & Peace to YOU & YOURS
Love Angela & Brian 💛💛💛💛💛

So - you was both there in person a hundred years ago? Was she around in 1066 too?! I\'m in contact with an old primary school penfriend still, from about 50 years ago now - or should it be 50 million years?

ANGELA & BRIAN said:
ANGELA HERE (Late lunch break) Love this Music - especially when Im feeling melacholy & blue ! Its a perfect accompanyment to your very melancholy Poem. Your visual reminds me that *Recreation* can be an antidote (but never an answer) for the lonliness caused by the absence of a loved one.I felt it in NZ in he latter days - when Ruth had gone home - and I was alone and my heart ached for BRIAN 24/7 ! BUT he did come for me eventually - and when I saw HIM I just broe down and wept or JOY ! I never realised just how much noise in the house - another person made. So in a small way I can empathise. In your case it is so so sad because (on this Earth) your physical (but not spiritual) separation is permanent. The silence is eerie - gone is the Music - the Laughter the Presence. We think of You & pray for You every day.
Blessings & Peace for You & Yours
Love Angela & Brian 💛💛💛💛💛

I read this and felt myself welling up - (selfishly ?) I thought of myself and wondered how I will feel if my dear wife should pass before I do - then I thought of you and all that you must be going through - my heart goes out to you Andy.

It is still early days. Such a major change in your life will have it\'s low times even for the most forward looking of person.
Let me say this.... whilst feeling low I would play some music which took me deep into that low, it\'s necessary to go there from time to time. And the benefit is that you will not stay low, a different lifted frame of mind will prevail and become your strength again, refreshed.
Springtime is ahead.

BRIAN HERE ~ Good Morning Uncle Andy thanks for the Video ! We love the CLARINET an instrument which lifts the woodwind section in an Orchestra ~ AND ~ as a Liquorish Stick is an essential in any Trad Jazz sextet ! Its musical range is very direct on the ear. My Dads MANTRA is *Music Maketh Man* he is an amateur Concert Pianist & Church Organist from a Teenager ! Some of my Cousins studied Classical Music and when we communicated by e-mail and CD I did warn them that the World of Music is infnite. When we get married in April ~ Angela & I will have over 400 CDS between us with few duplicates. Before we start our Family our Guest Bedroom will double as a Music Room ! All my CDS are numbered - classified and stored on bespoke shelves. I now have ALEXA in the Kitchen and she is a great Musical Reservoir. Thanks for the POEM ~ there is a 100 times more items of NEW RECORDED MUSIC produced each week MONTH than we could possibly listen too ! Angela subscribes to the Classic FM (her fave in car radio station !) Magazine which increases her stack (also neatly arranged and catalogued !) of CDS. Music is a Passions of both of US ~ AMEN !
Blessings & Peace to YOU & YOURS
Love BRIAN & ANGELA

A fine write Gold. Yes, and so many hymns/choruses/songs I don\'t know the tunes and/or words too.
It don\'t help if the choir just sings merrily on, and no-one in the congregation knows the hymn. Are they teasing us?
How\'s your repertoire?!
