WYSIWYG

What You See Is What You Get. This is a journal blog, an explore-blog, a bit of this and that blog. Sharing where the mood takes me. Perhaps it will take you too.

Menoizikul; midweek musicalisms

This week, I thought 'let us do drums'. I like drums and drumming. Ever since the school orchestra was short a percussionist and - apparently - I raised my hand. 'Volunteering' was popular there - but it wasn't a wrong move. I played a mean cymbal, the xylophone was fun and if I have nothing else, rhythm is me!

Anyway. Had there been these things available, I may have burned a solo career. Have you ever heard of boomwhackers???

  10. The drum line is always the most unique sub group within marching bands. Probably the percussion section in orchestras, too.

      The 'classical' referred to here is a musical reference rather than the instrumental. I would normally 'spam' commercial comments, but I like the look of your site and am happy to leave it here for any readers who come late to this post. The boomwhackers are fun! Yxx
