A-Cappella.com is perfect for my vocal cords

september 7 2007

My regular readers know music is my food and water, is my vacation at home, my source of existence.
Without music I'll be running in the streets untill I'm caught by an ambulant psychiatric team and closed behind bars forever.

Ofcourse I don't have violins accompanying me during my household chores, and I don't hear the drums sweeping up the stress when one of the boys has a meltdown.
(I will ofcourse if they finally make a movie about my life and I can only hope the bagpiper who plays me will love the instrument as much as I do.)

So I sing...
To keep my vocal cords in swing, and my brains from desintegrating, and to be honest, to keep me from feeling old.

There's a name for singing without instruments: A cappella.
You can write it in many other ways, but this is the only way that is a 100% right for musicians.

Most of you know a cappella singing from barbershopsinging.
That's one of the many ways to use the voice as a wonderful instrument of musical harmony.

I've found a marvellous a cappella store where you not only can find clear information, but also a cappella mp3s, CD's, DVD's, videos... and a capella sheet music.

Part of the sheet music is free for download with permission from the publishers.

Ofcourse the store offers accessories too.
Not all have the gift to target the tone right on spot, like my dad could, so they need a pitch pipe. Well, they have models I have never seen. What a choice!

Well, you have to have a look yourself. No matter what style you prefer, there's something for everyone.

When you won't see me commenting on your blogs, know I've downloaded some sheetmusic and I'm learning some new songs.
I love to surprise people with a song now and then, and it will be much more fun with A-Cappella.com to rely on. With over 3,000 different pieces it won't be a problem to keep my vocal cords perfectly in shape.


and it's my life.
