I LOVED that bass!


“Thanks for the lovely rendition of Happy Birthday. I LOVED that bass!”

This is a kind, thoughtful, and much-appreciated reply to an electronic birthday card recently sent.

Right. Sometimes I’m just quirky - at best.  Brain activity now decrees that this one simple sentence provides a launching pad for yet another rambling discourse.  And what exactly will this monologue be about?

Well, Johann Pachelbel's "Canon in D major".  Naturally!

I use a traditional strings version of this baroque masterpiece as my alarm clock. For the past week, like many of you, I have been starting each morning without rushing to the office.  Because I can now sign-in from home, I’ve allowed myself time to listen to the entire instrumental before beginning my day.

For peaceful awakenings, I give You thanks.
