I'm sorry I haven't had the time to properly tell you about the recital, but it should be coming sometime...

However, you can listen to the music!

I have my own purevolume page, and feel all big and musician-like.

You can listen to 4 tracks from my In Concert October 28, 2006 album here.

Feel free to spread the link around.

I'm relatively pleased with how the recording turned out, but sometime (read as never) I might re-record it....

In other news, we'll probably be getting a Mac mini, and it's only 17 days until we leave!

Be fabulous.

Details + Speak for Yourself = Pure genius

And the lyrics use such cool words. Love it.

iTunes makes me die of happiness.

She's like Imogen Heap, but with only a cello.

See this for proof.

Her stuff is on iTunes too.

And, to top it all off, she's Canadian!

Her music is beautiful.

I love iTunes.

Really, it's amazing. I have only used it to buy exclusive tracks/EP's/singles so far, but the pull of instant music and not having to wait for months for CD's to get here is quite attractive. However...I won an $150 gift card to musichristian.com and I sort of have to use it.

And the CD's I want most to get soon are those which I also want a physical CD for. So either I buy both copies (which is unecessarily exorbitant), wait excruciatingly two months, or just buy the iTunes copy.

Nevertheless, I will be "required" to get a few physical CD's since iTunes doesn't have everything (though the Canadian iTunes is doing a fabulous job of keeping current American CD's stocked).

Any advice?

Get the iTunes tracks and forget about the CD's? Wait for the CD's?

Oh the bitterness....

(The Open Door is excellent...yay for iTunes )

If you haven't heard of Imogen Heap, I pity you. She is quite amazing and fantastic.

Click here to watch her genius in action.

And sit down. You will be blown away.

(By the way, there's one mild swear word at the beginning of the third song, but other than that it's completely clean. Just so you know. )

I now have a career.

It's quite illustrious, really. I am a professional contest winner.

I just won the Fireflight Photo Contest for my entry.

You can see my entry here.

I'm pretty geeked. Fireflight rocks.

I can't wait to get my "freaking amazing" prize pack.
