I agree with Sadie, the idea of putting dance to S&D is great, and the moves are wonderful, but I don't think they go together at all.

I've conducted along to it with my hands when no one's watching.

[Andrew]

Monkey & Bear is way more fun to conduct along to.

[Jordan~]

That, too.

Was just listening to a live bootleg of Sarah Jarosz from a show in Houston a couple of week ago - and surprise- track 5 is Book of Right-On. I converted and tossed the MP3 up to listen and download

At my most coordinated I start to think, "I wonder how much conductors are paid..."

[rainbowdash]

I went through a period when I was young of wanting to be a conductor ... I had a collection of fairy princess wands that I'd wave while listening to classical music despite my mother telling me that that wasn't how it worked.

This was not "found on the net" but I found another children's music reference in Joanna's music. The song "Frog Went A-Courting" in Easy "Hear the frog going courtin'"

One of Joanna's instrumental compositions has just gone up on Vimeo:

It's been released on a CD called 'Harpfelt Connections' by the Sierra Nevada Memorial Harp Group. (There's more info about it here: ).

[Gerritsón]

great find!

[Andrew]

Yayyy! Thanks stunning-sky! About to listen

That's an interesting article, so her dad is the medical director of the cancer centre, where her old music teacher also volunteers, and Joanna's also volunteered in the past? Small town.

[polliwog]

Except that they said Joanna was "nationally acclaimed" instead of internationally acclaimed.
