| | | #187_O RAPAZ DO SORRISO DE PIANO_THE PIANO SMILE BOY | | 2008-04-11 19:42:22 | | Desde criança que ele mostrava inclinação para a música.Quando a dentição de leite começou a cair e alguns dentes cresciam negros, os pais do rapaz preocuparam-se a valer pensando que o filho sofria de uma cárie precoce e severa.Em todo o lado, na ausência de um piano, ele praticava com afinco,assim como quem rói as unhas.Quando mentia com quantos dentes tinha na boca, como qualquer criança mentirosa, os adultos em redor riam-se e diziam: - Já chega de nos dar música, puto!"- mas ele fingia que nada percebia.Escovava sempre os dentes depois de comer... e depois de tocar,receando perder uma tecla.E nunca comia doces.O Rapaz do Sorriso de Piano mantinha religiosamente um stock de fio dental...cor de rosa.*(Sim, é isso, PAPELUSTRO está de regresso!)*(Yes, PAPELUSTRO is back!)*This first paper collage is dedicated to those Fuel My Blog Community Members that kept Fueling my blog during all these months that I've been absent.

| | CD Review: Fiona Joy Hawkins- Angel Above My Piano | | 2007-11-08 11:42:00 | | CD Review: Artist: Fiona Joy HawkinsTitle: Angel Above My PianoWebsite: http://www.fionajoyhawkins.comStyle: New Age/ClassicalBy Staff Writer L. Anne Carrington As a fan of different types of music, I was especially pleased to get hold of the latest release by Fiona Joy Hawkins, Angel Above My Piano. It is a perfect follow up to her debut work, the award-winning Portrait of a Waterfall; the previous album reached #1 on the New Age Reporter World Charts and was a finalist for the Best Piano Album at the 2005 NAR Lifestyle Music Awards. The opening track of Angel Above My Piano, "Crystal Desert," outlines Fiona Joy's journey across the world's coldest continent--Antarctica--and was inspired by her looking off the front of a boat into the dark clouds and a blizzard, finding a multi-colored sky at the other end of the boat, along with colors reflected in the snow. "Down the Aisle (Wedding March 2)" is perfect for any couple searching for that perfect song for their special day; "Thinking of You (Australian Lullaby)"combines a song written by Fiona Joy's father, Garry Heaney, with a melody she wrote about lost love. "Dance of the Penguins" has a constantly shifting rhythm that suggests a lack of grace and a playful demeanor, while "Flight of the Albatross" describes the graceful flight of a bird gliding across the tips of the waves outside her window; peaceful, carefree, and beautiful. The title track brings to life the beautiful charcoal drawing of a friend of an angel that had come to her in a dream, bringing it totally to life in song. Other key tracks are "Watching the Wind," and "Preamble: Partitia No. 5," along with the closing track of a reprise of "Love Forever" as a piano solo. Even for those who are not huge fan on New Age or classical music, one listen to Angel Above My Piano, and one won't help but fall in love with the entire album. It's soothing and relaxing. | | By: Indie Music Stop | | |

A mágica do SteinwayAos 150 anos de idade, a mais celebrada marca de piano do mundo é cultuada como uma jóia pelos músicos.

São raras as marcas que viraram sinônimo de um produto. Fotocópias? Xerox. Lâmina de barbear? Gillette. Piano? Steinway, e não se fala em outra coisa há 150 anos. Mas atenção: nenhum Steinway (pronuncia-se stainuêi) é igual ao outro. | | By: Merlinus & Samantha Poções do Progressivo | | |
| | Thursday Thirteen - More Piano Facts | | 2007-10-31 17:56:00 | | Spinet pianos were made by Samuel Blythe as early as 1789 at Salem, Mass. The term Grand was first used in 1777.Abraham Lincoln used Chickering Grand #5070 while at the White House. During 1869 the US produced 25,000 pianos valued at $7,000,000, during 1910 production was 350,000 pianos valued at $100,000,000 ! The term "Tickle the Ivorys" refers to playing the ivory keys of the piano, however, ivory has not been used to make piano keys since about the 1950's (they are plastic, sometimes referred to as "Ivorine"). That there are currently over 50 Brand Names of pianos? During the past 100 years there have been approximately 5000 Brands of pianos placed on the market. Most are still on display in homes or elsewhere. Pianos are made of thousands of pieces of wood glued together to form various parts of the playing mechanism as well as the cabinet. Felt, buckskin, paper, steel, iron, copper, and other materials are also used. Don't forget to visit PianoSuppies.com for piano lamps, bench cushions, tuning equipment and more ! Or the Piano Book Store for great books about pianos . Independent studies show that children who learn piano tend to do better in school. This is attributed to the discipline, eye-hand coordination, social skills building, learning a new language (music) and the pleasure derived from making your own music. It should also be noted here that anyone considering a career in any facet of music should consider studying the piano . Many music schools require at least one semester of piano, regardless of your major. Over the years there have been many attempts at "improving" the piano. One such experiment was to replace some of the wooden action parts with plastic. It didn't work, they cracked with age. (If you own one of these pianos, you might want to check out Piano Tuners to get it repaired or even Piano Dealers to replace it).There were many other ideas that tried and failed including the Jensen piano which had 2 keyboards, a vertical grand, one th | | By: Infinitely CRAZY | | |

| | | | Cecile Chaminade - Compositora de piezas para piano.Gozó de gran popularidad pero hoy su nombre y su música se hundieron en el olvido más absoluto. | | 2007-10-16 21:33:00 | | Cecile Chaminade(1857-1944) Cécile Chaminade nació en París y comenzó a estudiar música con su madre, continuando con Félix Le Couppey, Savart, Martin Pierre Joseph Marsick y Benjamin Godard. Compositora precoz, con sólo ocho años tocó composiciones suyas de música sacra para Georges Bizet, el autor de Carmen. Su popularidad aumentó a lo largo de su vida, desde su primer concierto, que dio con dieciocho años. Escribió sobre todo piezas para piano y canciones de salón. Su obra fué considerable, y en ella se puede mencionar una sinfonía dramática: Las Amazonas, opus 26, una Suite de orquesta una ópera cómica La Sevillana, opus 10, un Trio n° 2 para violón, violonchelo y piano, opus 34 y un Concertino para flauta y orquesta, opus 107. Entre sus 200 piezas para piano, en estilo romántico, destacan Estudio Sinfónico, opus 28; Seis Estudios de concierto, opus 35, Arabesco, opus 61; Seis Romances sin palabras, opus 76. En su época gozó de gran popularidad pero hoy es una compositora de "segunda fila", quizá porque el grueso de su obra consiste en piezas breves para piano, voz y piano y otras piezas "de salón". Basta escuchar algunas de sus canciones para enamorarse perdidamente de esta mujer cuyo amor fue la música y que, exceptuando un breve matrimonio, vivió dedicada a ella plenamente, hasta el punto de declarar: "Soy una vestal de la música"(Via)Click Aquí para Descargar Partituras de Cecile ChaminadeEn 1925 se retiró defintivamente de la escena musical y después de sufrir la amputación de un pie, fue a vivir a Montecarlo, donde vivió hasta su muerte, el 13 de agosto de 1944. Su nombre y su música se hundieron en el olvido más absoluto. Hoy en día aún no se ha recuperado su voz musical ni su personalidad de vestal del arte, mujer y artista, de méritos personales y cívicos. Parece que puede haber llegado el momento de recuperarla en la genealogía de mujeres que nos precedieron y que hoy pueden ser iconos de la liberación de las mujeres modernas.Su Música:Cécile recorrió toda Europa con enorme éxito, llegando hasta la misma Turquía. La reina Victoria de Inglaterra la recibió con honores en Windsor. Su gira por los Estados Unidos fue clamorosa. Fue recibida por el propio presidente Roosvelt, agasajada y admirada en Canadá.Su obra consta de más de cuatrocientas composiciones, de las cuales apenas podemos escuchar hoy en día algunas grabaciones. Entre sus composiciones, la mayoría publicadas sólo en partitura y no grabadas comercialemente, encontramos un ballet, “Callirhoé”, que se mantuvo en cartel durante meses desde su estreno; el famoso Concertino para flauta; los Seis estudios de concierto para piano; una obra escénica, “La Sevillana”; una Sonata en Do menor; una gran cantidad de hermosas canciones para soprano y piano; innumerables piezas para piano solo.Chaminade's Concertino for FluteNo resulta comercial, es de suponer. Hasta tal punto esto es así que una magnífica grabación de la Deustche Gramophone, realizada por la soprano Anne Sophie Von Otter, no lleva en portada ni en la carátula del disco el nombre de la compositora, sino en la contraportada y en letra menor. Otra curiosidad, no sabemos si casual o intencionada. Francia, cuyos músicos varones tanto la habían despreciado, la honró finalmente concediéndole la Legión de Honor, convirtiéndose en la primera mujer que recibía tal galardón. Su comportamiento durante la Primera Guerra Mundial fue ejemplar. Dejó de lado su carrera musical para convertirse en enfermera en un hospital de campaña; tenía entonces cincuenta y siete años. Después de la Guerra aún siguió componiendo, pero fue espaciando poco a poco sus apariciones públicas. (Cita)“Yo no creo que las pocas mujeres que han alcanzado grandeza en el trabajo creativo sean la excepción, sino que pienso que la vida ha sido dura para las mujeres; no se les ha dado oportunidad, no se les ha dado seguridad… La mujer no ha sido considerada una fuerza de trabajo en el mundo y el trabajo que su sexo y condición les impone no ha sido ajustado a darle una completa idea para el desarrollo de lo mejor de sí misma. Ha sido incapacitada, y sólo unas pocas, a pesar de la fuerza de las circunstancias de la dificultad inherente, han sido capaces de conseguir lo mejor de esa incapacitación”.

| | The Smalles Piano Ever | | 2007-09-19 14:09:00 | | Japanese toymaker has unveiled what it says is the world's smallest fully functioning grand piano. It may be a toy-sized, but the instrument has a full 88 keys and sounds much like a full-sized piano.Japan's Sega Toys developed the piano, which measures 7 inches tall and almost 10 inches wide.It's extremely difficult to play by hand, since each key is only about 1/5-inch wide. The tiny piano also has an auto-playing function that can crank out tunes by Tchaikovsky and Billy Joel.One of the piano's developers said Japan's housing situation allows only a very few people to have the room for a full-sized grand piano. The piano will go on sale in Japan in April for about $500. | | By: Muway06 | | |
| | Pia-pia-piano! | | 2007-09-17 15:18:28 | | I’ve always wanted to play the piano. Back in college, I used to visit a friend’s house so I could practice playing the piano. However, if you see me play the piano today, you'd know I wasn’t that successful. I couldn’t even finish a single song. :hide: Looking back, I realized maybe I made some mistake in trying to learn it myself. I really thought that I would learn by merely looking at the notes and the songbook. I think that to learn how to play a piano; you have to have more than curiosity. I realized all that when I hopped into Piano Chords Blog. It’s a blog that’s updated daily for discussions on piano chords and chord progressions. And you know what’s good about this blog? Well, it also talks about music theory. This is what makes it an interesting read among piano and music students. Let alone a good supplement for someone who’s learning music in college or for someone who’s learning piano through the help of a private teacher. I should be frequently visiting the blog. I think you should, too. It's never too late in learning how to play music. =) | | By: buttony muddle-headed... | | |
| | All about Piano Chords Blog... | | 2007-09-17 04:45:51 | | I like piano, but so far I can only dream about learning how to play it. We can't really afford to have a piano at this time. Anyway, my husband's Aunt who raised him played piano for years-by ear-she did so well though. And now, my husband is planning to get our daughters to play piano, too. So, if there is a way for them to learn easily, and most of all for free, they might be able to learn how to play a piano. By the way, I visited a Piano Chords Blog that offers free piano lessons online, covering piano chords, chord progressions, music theory, transposition, modulation, improvisation, sheet music lessons. I will have my husband see about it and maybe it will encourage him to get a piano for our eldest daughter anyway. It is a blog that has topics about piano chords, and chord progressions. In fact, you can never be too old to learn how to play piano there. So, anyone interested is welcome. Come and visit the blog!Brought to you by Piano Chords Blog | | By: Memoirs of a Filipina | | |

| | The Little Girl And The Piano | | 2007-06-21 08:14:11 | | A little girl wanted to become a great pianist, but all she could play on the piano was the simple little tune, “Chopsticks”. No matter how hard she tried, that was the best she could do. Her parents decided after some time to arrange for a great maestro to teach her to play properly. Of course, the little girl was delighted.
When the little girl and her parents arrived at the maestro’s mansion for the first lesson, they were escorted by the butler into the parlour, where they saw a beautiful concert grand piano. Immediately, the little girl dashed over to the piano and began playing “Chopsticks”. Her embarrassed parents started across the room to tell her to stop, but as she played, the maestro entered the room and encouraged the little girl to continue.
The maestro then took a seat on the piano bench next to the little girl, listening to her play. After a moment he began to play along with her, adding chords, runs, and arpeggios. The little girl continue | | By: 7 Degrees of Grace | | |
| | O piano das minhas fantasias inconscientes | | 2007-06-19 03:52:59 | | Ultimamente um sonho meu de infância vem sendo despertado entre os inúmeros que ficam na fantasia do inconsciente. Quero tocar piano. Mas eu não quero simplesmente tocar piano, quero ir além. Quero dar vida a minha vida através das notas musicais.
Terminando a faculdade, um dos “entraves” psíquicos mais árduo da minha vida, vou ter uma libido extraordinária correndo pelo corpo. Pois bem, começando aos 25 anos sabendo apenas que dó-ré-mi-fá-sol-lá-si fazem parte do mundo musical, imagino que lá pelos 40 ou 45 anos, com muito empenho e criatividade, acho que não vou ser tão mal.
Preciso agora de um educador musical, isso acho a parte mais difícil, pois a maioria deve ser professores - penso como Rubem Alves, educador está em falta. Faço aqui um paralelo com o ato de escrever. Para escrever é necessário desconsiderar a gramática, pois esta acorrenta as idéias e torna os pensamentos pálidos. O “gramático” quando escreve faz um esforço imens | | By: Log de MSN | | |
| | To the Brown Piano | | 2007-06-06 19:13:56 | | Some years ago I wrote and delivered a speech for a poorly-constructed communications class. It was the perfect blend of humor and inspiration, serious and satire, and I meant every word of it. The other day, while rifling through old binders attempting to create order in my chaotic academic universe, I happened upon my only copy of it. It's still a true inspiration, and I'm posting it here specifically for those of my readers who know and love the Brown Piano as I do. As a disclaimer, it was delivered as a speech, not a paper, and punctuation reflects melodramatic pauses rather than proper grammar. Also, after years of experience, I have learned that it impossible for a piano to produce a song, for a song has words. In the spirit of authenticity, I have reproduced it exactly as I found it.

| | Paint-Piano by Michel Gondry | | 2007-06-03 00:56:32 | | Michel Gondry is a famous film-maker from France. He caused some hype in the past with his performances on YouTube in which he is solving a Rubrics Cube with his feet or his nose (which both turned out to be a fake). Now I discouvered this nice footage of Michel, building a "Paint-Piano" a few more years ago which connects the piano player's fingers to a spin-paint device, dropping specific colors on playing specific notes to a rotating pad. The result are circular beautiful and hypnotic paintings. In this video, Björk is the piano player (well, she is trying to) which makes this video very special, because both are georgeous artists. For the geeks, it could be compared to the Gates and Jobs interview at the D5 last week... except that Björk and Michel Gondry are not competitors
