For now, at least. With everything going paywalled it would be nice if a subscription was available for a compilation of sites.

In honor of Bastille Day, here is a little Frenchness.
In some ways, Erik Satie was a luddite. He never recorded any of his music, and he never used a telephone. But once he did appear on the radio, and he was also in a movie once.
Here he is with Francis Picabia and a stop-motion canon. This is part of a Dadaist short film titled Entr’acte. It was shown between acts of the ballet Relâche.
This was one year before he died.

Fun, she came up in an episode of one of the new podcasts i’m listening to (new to me). The podcast being The Weirdest Thing I Learned This Week
she’s also known for making impressive conclusions in medicine. She seems to have had some idea that boiling water could prevent disease, and she also appears to be one of the first people to connect syphilis to its sexual transmission. And of course, as we explain in the podcast, she provided a remarkably thorough description of a female orgasm
I recommend the podcast, it’s delightful.

I have a particular fondness for women’s voice choirs, and indeed women vocal ensembles in general, so I get to hear Hildegaard music a fair bit. She’s a megastar in that scene! Like Meredith Monk. Who is also totally awesome.
I mention this only as all these elements are things that I recommend everyone adds to their musical experience. Just because I believe they may make your life better and why not try?
I may also be in a good mood about the healing power of music as i just got the bus back from the life affirming Sparks and stopped for a glass of nice whiskey at the pub 50m from my house.

Stay strong!
I can’t admit to my child how, after queuing for four hours online and I couldn’t get tickets, I’m relieved. Really relieved.
And I really like live music.
