Cynthia's S910 Jukebox

(See MP3 listing below for downloads or comments.)

(July, 2010) I was born in December, four days after Christmas, and for the first couple of years this was my story when the teacher asked! And after all these years, I often forget my birthday so maybe this is still not a bad answer. For most of my school years we moved around the Maritimes. Then I got married in 1962 and moved across Canada but never back to the Maritimes, darn it. Ah well, tis life and romance. We have two children and four grandchildren.

The one constant in my life, besides my hubby, has been my love of music. Being self taught, it has its ups and downs. Traveling around the country, I taught all elementary grades 1 through 7 and often was called on to teach music appreciation as a subject, which was a challenge, especially with grade 7 children, but I loved it. Returning to University, as a mature student, in the 1970’s, picture of two pilated woodpeckersI became involved with adult learning and eventually became national President for part-time students. In those days, the concept of a lifetime of learning was a new idea. As a fund raiser at our local university, we had a week of a tea garden for a number of years and, with no music, I provided it will my little Kimbal. Everyone seemed to enjoy it. It was unimaginable then the changes in technology we have today with a machine like the PSR-S910. Eventually, I completed my degree and continue that life time of learning today with my Yamaha.

For a short while in Vancouver, I taught organ in a Gulbransen store. I really enjoyed seeing the adults learn to play and my teaching helped me purchase my Gulbransen. After a few more moves, we landed back to Manitoba and have settled down here because both our children live in Winnipeg. Tack on a few more years and arthritis has taken hold with a vengeance, so I moved to Yamahas as I can no longer play the pedals. And here I am enjoying chatting with so many folks that obviously love music as much as I do. My hat goes out to Joe for providing a place for us to meet.

This first set of midis is simply melodies I really love. For me, melody is everything. Add some harmony and it can’t be beat.
