...such as the dignified "Domine Deus" from Gloria, the serious "Non ti Lusinghi la Crudeltade," Lucio's aria from Tito Manilo, and the sublime aria of Irene, "Sposa son Disprezzata," from Bajaset-it was in the dark, angry arias of fierce battles and even fiercer love that her full vocal range was given the most expression...
...America, "intellectuals" (what are those?), the culture of Silicon Valley, and the strange habits of deconstructionists. After all, what better material for entertainment than that which is actually happening and unfolding around you? So goes the mantra of Tom Wolfe. He has established himself as the most visible (or vocal) proponent of detailed realism in American letters today, and his entire body of work is permeated by the premise that the best subject for a story is that elusive little thing called real life...
...party! She's throwing a fiesta at the Roseland Ballroom in New York and she'll sing some songs from her new album. But Madonna didn't invite me. That's ok. I won't invite her to my It Boy and It Girl Mixer... Christina Aguilera is having vocal chord problems and had to cancel a slew of concerts again for the second time in a month. This sounds strangely similar to the string of "maladies" which sidelined Whitney Houston while she was off smoking the ganja... Karmic revenge seems to be a hot topic this week. I overheard...

The most important of the "overdub" days were those that we spent singing. The Humming's tunes specialize in three and four part harmonies, so getting solid vocal takes was more important (if but slightly) than my glockenspiel part. We sang into a Neumann microphone, a piece of German engineering that can send shivers down the spine. Look carefully to behold the soft, silver metals and finely knit wires, I was told. Don't get too close though...
...Despite the time crunch, the overdub period allowed for the most spontaneity. Matthew would say, "this bridge needs something," and we would whip up vocal harmonies or horn lines on the spot. We plucked out banjo parts on three or four songs, though we kept only one sample. The beloved glockenspiel was a spur of the moment decision, which proved difficult, as the studio's version of the instrument was a few blocks short of a glock (the thing looked like the grin of an unlucky hockey player). This improvising was exciting and nerve-wracking. It was creative energy...
