It&#8217;s already getting prepared to ship, so I can&#8217;t cancel the order.<br \/>\nThere are two pieces in my <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/exec\/obidos\/ASIN\/0711933227\/musicwhoreorg-20\">sheet music<\/a> &#8212; &quot;The Attraction of the Pedalling Ankle&quot; and &quot;Deep Sleep Playing&quot; &#8212; I want to hear performed, but no one seems to have recorded them, not even Nyman himself.<br \/>\nI&#8217;m reaquainting myself with <em>The Piano<\/em> as further inspiration for <a href=\"\/meisakuki\/?entry_id=2893\">NaSoPiAlMo<\/a>. I&#8217;m even toying with the idea of learning all the pieces in my sheet music to record for a future Eponymous 4 project.<br \/>\nWhile I wait for that concert suite to arrive, I downloaded a Naxos recording of Nyman&#8217;s Piano Concerto, which is based on the film score. It&#8217;s a nice piece.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><br \/>\nOn Tuesday, I went to Waterloo Records to pick up an album of Erik Satie piano works. <em>An Accidental Memory in Case of Death<\/em> is incredibly impressionistic, so I think listening to Satie would be a good resource.<br \/>\nWhile I was there, I threw in Eluvium&#8217;s most recent release, <em>When I Live by the Garden and the Sea<\/em>. I thought there was a piano piece on there, but there isn&#8217;t.<br \/>\nSo yes, I think I&#8217;m taking this NaSoPiAlMo endeavor more seriously than I imagined. I&#8217;m <em>thisclose<\/em> to signing up, but I don&#8217;t know if opening myself to that kind of accountability will really work.<br \/>\nIf there&#8217;s anything preventing me from embracing NaSoAlMo entirely is the fact I <em>really<\/em> want to work on vocals. I bought a second microphone stand last week so I could use my Shure SM57 for rehearsal. I&#8217;ve been plugging the mic into the mixer and listening to my vocals on headphones.<br \/>\nRecording vocals takes time, and I don&#8217;t want to spread myself thin by recording another album for the entire month of November.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I think I&#8217;m taking this NaSoPiAlMo endeavor more seriously than I imagined.
