I just found, online, the sheet music of one of my very favouritest songs EVER (Gira il nemico insidioso Amore). I am going to sing the countertenor part and sing it and sing it until I get good at singing it. It goes a little low for me in two places (because it is for the gentleman countertenor, not the lady alto), but I shall manage.

There are more Monteverdi madrigals and arias where it came from, too.

Ooh, I'm as happy as a pig in shit.

And now imagining this is making ME happy.

Oh, I like madrigals! They're so much fun to sing! (I'm an alto.)

All the "foco, foco, amazza, amazza"s at the end are difficult to keep up with. The rest of the part is very easy to follow.

For a very long time I have had this fantasy of learning this song, finding two other fellers to sing it with, and standing up someplace and singing it.

Silly. At least now I can sing along with the CD a little better.

Yay for a happy Hallam!

I thought of you the last few days, whilst I was making earrings out of the cutest wee penguin beads EVER! Everyone who sees them squeees like a big ol' dork.

Aren't they just so silly and adorable? If'n you want a pair, I'll send you some! I think I have your address 'round here somewhere ...
