Caught up at last

Music: Listening Lounge stream – OL

We have posted November and December downloads in the LIstening Lounge. For November we decided to post three full-length songs from La Semana for those people who have hesitated to buy the album. Listen and you will find out that, like fine wine, I get better with age. Makes me shiver just to think of what I will cook up next…

For December we posted another Christmas song from 1001 Christmas Nights. The album is about half-finished and will be released in Fall of 2005, followed by a possible short tour during the few weeks between Thanksgiving and Christmas.

Compared To Mozart

I think, around 2, when he started writing, and actually drawing instruments, we knew that he was fascinated with it,” says Orna. “He managed to draw a cello and ask for a cello, and wrote the world cello. And I was surprised, because neither of us has anything to do with string instruments. And I didn’t expect him to know what it was.

Wow.

Millau Viaduct

Millau Viaduct

The Millau Viaduct recently opened up in France and was inaugurated by the French President Jacques Chirac. It was designed by the English architect Lord Norman Foster. It’s the highest bridge in the world measuring at 343 meters (1125.33 ft) and creates a direct route between Paris and the Mediterranean coast using only seven slender pillars.

What a beauty! I am going to try to see this next year.
