I’m on a Dueling Banjos roll, I guess. This video is hilarious!!!! It takes a little while for this video to get going, but wait for it, and the guys will really get into it. So see, kids? Your parents can’t afford that expensive violin, that high-priced cello? It never stopped THIS guy!

August 19, 2009
This guy is amazing! He’s up for the Guinness Book of World Records for being the fastest banjo player in the world. The metronome is set for 210 beats per minute! And he plays without even breaking a sweat. I love “Dueling Banjos.” It so much fun to watch, especially at 210 beats a minute. [...]

Child Prodigies

Children have such angelic voices. :D Have you seen all those viral videos of kids on TV shows, kids with amazing voices? I sometimes wonder what happens to them.

Music From Heaven

My daughter sent me this link, a video by the Anglican Boys’ Choir, Libera. OMG. These boys are… like angels. WOW. This music makes me float. Apparently, Libera has done several CDs.
