Each note you hear makes up part of the song you sing,
Resonance builds the structure, while dissonance shapes the tone.
No matter the noise you make, music is in everything
Whether you are part of the chorus or singing on your own.

-Clarence Holm

 

*Stuart Glazer had the unfortunate assignment of trying to teach me music theory in college. While my desire was deep, my talent unfortunately wasn’t, but I am forever grateful that while he was unable to draw blood from a deaf turnip, he did manage to give me an appreciation of the harmony around me.
I feel privileged to be able to share his artwork with you in this blog.

I keep hearing this song.
I keep hearing this song.

In the morning when the sun starts shining through
And the prairie dogs wake calling to me
The world seems fresh bathed in early morning dew
Awaiting summer winds – grey clouds still absentee.

I keep hearing this song.
I keep hearing this song.

Cows bellow in response to my father’s morning call
The pheasants flush from verdant grass guarding nests
And the roosters call
Reminding me of youthful taunts professed

I keep hearing this song.
I keep hearing this song.
