		<description><![CDATA[When my students stumble over chord fingerings in a lessons I often fall back on a trick I learned while at Berklee College of Music. It&#8217;s a simple method for training your muscles to get into and out of a chord form smoothly and quickly.
You set a metronome on the slow side (54-60 bpm) and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I just finished mastering an album for children&#8217;s performer Marcia Louis entitled Goin&#8217; To Kindergarten. As well as the mastering, I engineered, mixed and even lent a helping hand with the instrumentation. This marks the 3rd album I&#8217;ve done for Marcia and, while they have all been fun, this one has been a real treat. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A thought I had while arguing a point &#38; thought I would share. The point presented was that we crave drama in our lives, drama that mimics a fairy tale.
What we want out of life are tangible sign posts along the way of our life&#8217;s journey, not drama. We want moments of sublime importance to [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[So&#8230;have you been blown away by the new media revolution?? Neither have I. In fact, there&#8217;s really not all that much &#8216;new&#8217; about New Media. Delivering a commercial to me as a pre-roll to an online video stream is not &#8216;new&#8217;. Sorry. Banner ads are certainly not new either. Sorry. Rich media? Again, not new.

		<description><![CDATA[I have become convinced that technology has done more to hinder focus and excellence than it has done to help. Technology injects our lives with too much information at once and forces us to switch gears quickly and frequently. Neither of those things are known to be healthy or productive in our everyday existence. But, [...]]]></description>
