Welcome. . .

Hi   I'm MarlaneT 

Speaking with the Artist/Composer...

Watch and see the chord progression Beethoven used in just 23 measures in his d minor piano sonata Op. 21 No 2....Great fun! Beethove Sonata Dm Opus 31 No 2


Don't let the long list of chords frighten you or shy you away from trying to follow them as

the video tells you what they are BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY


I want you to HEAR those chords as they come.


Hear the MAJOR

Hear the minor

Hear the 7th Chord

Hear.....well you get my point.



Here's a fun fact and listening skill tip.......

YOU DON"T HAVE TO KNOW HOW TO MAKE the chords you are listening to

You need only to know how it makes you "feel" and experience it!


We can get to details another time, how to make them.




Enjoy and talk with. you soon......

like and hear the difference of how they "feel.".

The process of picking just the "right" songs and works to put together in an album, is an important and serious one .

The contrast of the songs.

The contrast of emotions and styles all play an important part in the decision process.

It is like planning a "live" concert. More about the selections, another time.


I'm going to title the album, It is "I" in You.

It is a new song that I just performed in a Lenten live concert.



It talks about wanting to do something nice for someone else or

how we might "know" if someone needs our help...


We ask in our prayers and God answers and says...

"It is "I" in you.

When you sense what to do and how you can help....

it is "I" in you telling and guiding you."


"It is both you and "I".......


Till next time...

All the best, MarlaneT
