Woman and Her Past

The woman who knows about her memories of long ago...
The woman lived in her house by herself. She helped her goat and man.

Little Luke and Prokofiev

I'm sitting on Prokofiev's shoulders. He wrote Peter and the Wolf for children. He wrote other stuff like Love and Three Oranges. I like the grandfather drawing the best. He's the one in the orange hat and blue pants. We liked Peter and the Wolf.

Beethoven's brain

by Luke

Apparently Beethoven still continues to hear music even after his death. This is a piece, (similar to the previous work "Hearing Music in His Mind") that Luke is going to put on the end of the casket he is making in the multi-disciplinary studio. We're looking forward to seeing this and more of his work at the Rockford exhibit in October.

Beethoven Plays the Piano that Cristofori Bartolemeo Invented

Beethoven wrote alot of music including The Pastoral Symphony No. 6 that we are listening to right now. The flute and the piccolos imitate the birds and the storm is coming up (the kettle drums). There are frogs in there too (the trumpet).
Cristofori Bartomemeo invented the piano. He was a good inventor.
