Fiddlesticks...:)

My grandson Nick started taking violin lessons this week...I told him that if I thought I could learn to play like "the Lady" in the duo below, that I would give it a shot! (I am probably that "old dog", though...:)

"Ashokan Farewell" has been one of my favorite Civil War-era melodies for a long time (it was the main theme for the Ken Burns series "The Civil War" on PBS several years ago)...my son Jonathan and I found this version when looking up another Civil War song on Youtube a while back, and we  both just sat there and watched ~ and listened ~  transfixed...I have to share it ~ ♥

 She makes it look so effortless, doesn't she?

Here is a little-music related ACEO I did a couple of years ago (the original is owned by my friend in Switzerland)...

I called it "Ode to Joy"

  I think I should do a little painting of Tallulah playing the violin...my version of "The Cat and the Fiddle"! I can't believe it's already Wednesday evening...another week flying by! Have a great night! ♥ ♥ ♥Anne
