Remembrances

Greetings, fellow Music Nerds!

Please forgive me for my prolonged absence. This summer has really flown by, and it was mainly taken up with the huge task of relocating McVirgo Manor. (I think it’s time for McDoc and I both to admit that we need to start attending some meetings. 😛 )

I decided to finally come back out of the woodwork today because it’s a significant day for me — my Mom passed away 8 years ago today, on August 23, 2000. So I would like to re-post two musical tributes that I created for her last year at this time.

I also want to dedicate these two pieces to a sweet young woman who became a member of my family during the past year, when she and McDoc’s son were married. She had faced health issues since infancy, and she passed away a week ago tomorrow.

So here are two songs for VirgoMom and for Margo.

My performance of Wings of Speed, by Paul Weller:

And Seven Years Ago Today for string quartet, from the 30 Days Project:

Peace and love to all.

  1. This is beautiful. Dan will love it and I’m sure Margo would have too.
