Diane Birch & Alain Clark

Do you remember? A few weeks ago, I wrote about Diane Birchs song Valentino.
She recorded a duet with the Dutch singer Alain Clark. It is on his new (incredible relaxing) album 'Colorblind'. If you like Prince or Stevie Wonder, this is is a bit like their music (may I say that?)

The Fab Four

I'm not going to write a quality article about The Beatles (I don't think I could do better than all those billions of people who wrote books about them). So just some photos that made me smile.

My New Favourite Song

This is the soundtrack of the police television series Wallander from Sweden. It's by Anna Ternheim, a folky Swedish singer/songwriter. Sometimes she sounds like Coldplay or Dido. I especcialy like the flageolet tones on the strings.

PS: Watch the series!

Sam Tsui and Allison Williams

I love their voices, they are so clear!

Together!

Everybody's Free (To Wear Sunscreen)

Wikipedia says Jamiroquai will release a new album in September 2010!

Living In Your Light

Jon Allen! I calm down when I hear this song, it is very beautiful.

P.S: Jon Allen singing Duffy's Mercy.

Woo ooh ooh ooh, Valentino!

Classical Comic

I had to make this photo comic for school, it's about Ulysses and Calypso. You can click the picture to read the text, but I warn you: it's in Dutch ;) .

Cello Festival

Last Thursday I went to the Cello Festival in Dordrecht with some other students that play the cello. We saw a masterclass and a concert by Lucia Swarts. It was about the Cello Suites by Bach. Because of Ascension-day in  Holland, the shops were closed and it was very quiet on the streets. We drank warm chocolate in a very cute café. When I came home, I almost directly started to play my instrument!

Bobby McFerrin And Yo-Yo Ma

More Yo-Yo Ma? Earlier I posted this cute video, featuring Elmo and Yo-Yo Ma.

This Is A Bliss!

Muse "The Resistance Tour -  Live"

MUSE | MySpace Music Videos

A complete MUSE concert from the Resistance tour in Seattle.

What? This is amazing!

Foxtrot! Foxtrot! Foxtrot!

ext Monday and Tuesday, the school musical will be performed. I'm already a bit nervous ( I play in the orchestra/big band). May be I buy some new clothes. The dress code is black and a white bow.

The musical is written by Annie M.G. Schmidt (do you know Jip & Janneke) and Harry Bannink. 

I tried to translate a description:

" The story takes place in a guesthouse for revue artists in the ' 30. Josien, a girl from the provinces, is a new guest. She falls in love with gay singer Jules. And, even worse, she becomes pregnant by an unknown man. She uses abortus, tries to kill herself, but there is a happy ending.

It's a musical from the ' 70 with a lot of heavy topics, like abortus and homosexuality, in it. Although this sounds very sad, it's very funny and the songs are great.

A medley movie including the songs:

PS: Jip and Janneke.

I love the weather yesterday, today and hopefully all week long!

During my Trier-trip I had a lot of ice-cream and yesterday I made my homework in the garden.

I had a iPod! And in Trier I bought new shoes, that's very logical if you know the shoes I was wearing...(I'll post a photo later.)

And all my marks that count for my exams are above 7,8!!! This afternoon I'll go climbing with a friend, bake pancakes and watch some tv.

Surprise

Look at the bottom of this page if you like Franz Ferdinand...

Haha, funny intro.

Want Want - Kip Paard Koe

The song is about a chicken, horse, cow and farming. Now I am happy, although my test didn't went so well.
