REALLY Wierd

|

Go visit the Parkway Rest Stop and read what James wrote on Thursday, August 28, titled "This is REALLY Weird." I tried it several times and it gave me goosebumps!

When I was studying music I took a course in Dalcroze, which is a method of music education which related physical movement to music. We spent some time learning to conduct conflicting meters, the simplest of which was to conduct two in the right hand and three in the left.

At the end of the session, the class went to a local bar and spent the evening on the dance floor, showing what we had learned. I have it on good authority that this kind of exercise will drive musicians crazy, as they play in one meter, and you move in a conflicting meter.

Musicians have strange senses of humor. Do Re Mi Fa Sol La Ti........
