Just as I wrote about on my
Making Music Page about letting the Music Making process become effortless.
Like effortlessly floating dandelions in the wind,
As you can see in the 'Lights & Music Tweet here above.

I do like it when it works like that,
especially with playing (Chromatic) Mouthorgan
it frequently works that way,

Not that everything always does go as effortlessly as I want,
As you could read about in my blog post titled:

Songwriting for the Waste Basket

Possibly that's why when you are Talented for it it's also possible
to make things a little less complicated without real Lyrics,
by Scatting instead, or by Spontaniously get Inspiration
for Making Up Lyrics as you go
with Free Styling.

You hear many Artists use this technique,
Some time ago I also noticed Scatting and Free Style singing
with the performance from

Saskia Laroo & Warren Byrd
where Saskia Free Styled about our town Huizen.
It's all about Great Music Listening

My Performance on Stage, Sort of as a Singer....,

Any Idea What Kind of Music Instruments

I Usually Experiment With? 

With Our Little Music Group I
usually do things like Mouthorgan, Piano or Guitar, experimenting,
making constant improvements, and (Nowadays) I usually
also use a Microphone with it.

So from this (and from Job Experiences) 

I am pretty used to using a Microphone 

Saskia Laroo & Warren Byrd In Kunstcafé HuizenGreat Music Listening!

Last wednesday for my Great Music Listening, I went to a perfomance from
Saskia Laroo and Warren Byrd, in het Kunstcafé in Huizen.

Some years ago I have seen them perform before.

Once durring a concert I also saw Saskia Laroo wearing a belt with
- as I recall - guitar effect electronics that she
used for here Trumpet. Making the Trumpet sound
extra mysterious with echo effects etc. etc. an interesting
way of Making Music

Making me think about a Miles Davis Quote

"Even the Sky Ain't the Limit"

Talking about limitless, Saskia didn't only play
the Trumpet, also played the Saxophone and did some parts Singing,
Scatting, and even a little part 'Free Style' Singing about Huizen!


Warren Byrd was also Singing and
playing the Piano like it's Effortless

Great Music!




BTW as I bought one of their CD's, Warren explained that the Name Byrd
is pronounced as Bird and under his autograph he wrote a few

Bird 'Tweets'

Learned Something About (Vocal) Melody and How it Relates to Songwriting.

Thank you for still going to that previous post about 'Melody First' 

Showing your interest in this topic, because it got me thinking about it, 

Resulting in my recent New post titled: 

  Some More About 'Melody First'

 

Did you Notice the VIDEO

in that Post Showing a Work-Flow 

for the Songwriting Process....? ? ? 

In that post I also provided a link to a Video about The Wonderful Limitations of Your Vocal Melody Giving an interesting insight into the Songwriting Process,

Showing an acual Work-flow for it that Starts with the Instrumentation, that creates the basis for creating a Vocal Melody (on the Hook) Basically looking at what you can do Vocally with your Voice that sounds good together with a certain Instrumentation...? 

(in my own words) 'Offering 'a space' for your Phrasing', than make up Words or Sylables just to make a (Vocal) Melody (I do believe that you could 'Free styling' your way here, or else like Scatting, 

if you don't (yet) get instant inspiration for actual meaningful words)

Interesting approach...! 

Also Singer Katie Perry talks about 

such a type of Melody as you can see in 

Katie Perries VIDEO 

about the Songwriting Process
