No music, but I'm planning on doing an arduous snowshoe hike New Year's Day. We're planning on a minimum of 9 hours!

You can tell that something is off, even on the images that look like real people. It's quite disturbing but also an interesting exercise to see how it "reasons" about the given prompt.

BeeGees, for sure.

That's very neat, thanks for sharing!

Print is still too light. Is there a way to darken it?

Yes, I will need to edit the styles. It may be a few days.

@rowuk said in Traits that make a great sight reader?:

There are various traits that make for good site reading.

1. large collection of memorized patterns
2. ability to negotiate the diagonal (end of one line to the beginning of the next)
3. ability to “hear” intervals (different than #1)
4. well taken care of chops
5. an organised approach before playing a note - key signatures and accidentals, natural feel for phrasing/breathing
6. a lot of experience site reading

Hearing the intervals is the easy part. Making that instant connection to which note it is is much harder. Hearing harmonic changes is even harder than that.

I recently saw Trombone Shorty and Orleans Avenue in concert at the Tree House Brewery Summer Stage in Deerfield, Massachusetts. Needless to say it was an outstanding performance! Here’s a sample from our vantage point.

Not so short anymore!

Not specifically trumpet related, but I hope you enjoy my first video.

Yeah, Miatas are a lot of fun, but very tiny!

It looks like a good time.

I find use out of both websites. I also find use out of search engines.

I'm 34 and I doubt I will ever truly "retire." I think that is a common attitude among my generation.

So, with my new perspective as I noted above, have I become a part of your generation?

Perhaps!

Upgrading TrumpetHerald would be a full-time job for several months.

I love trying new foods. That menu is quite delicious sounding to me.

1 hr and 45 minutes later in the same spot, overlooking Cape Cod Bay, The Northern Lights!

Beautiful. That's really stunning.
