learning all the time :: 10 january 2014

10 January 2014 by Kortney

last night i got a hankering for those “American boys who sing traditional Cambodian songs”…you know, Muk!  that really was what i searched for on google.  the last time my sister-in-law Phan was in town she introduced us to these guys on youtube.  all night long i was singing “ChampaBattambang.”  take a listen!

music can change the atmosphere at your house so quickly.  i was telling Andy that i want to create a list of music and what it does.  here’s a beginning:

  • need calm?  try Edgar Meyer.
  • need reflection?  try Hildegard or the monks of Keur Moussa.
  • need something more upbeat, but still not too distracting (no words in English)?  try Kronos Quartet or Ad Vielle Que Pourra
  • then there’s always Bruce 
  • or Leonard 
  • or The Waterboys
  • or REM
  • or Renee & Jeremy

    This is a great idea. I hope you keep adding to it. We are always looking for good music with out words in English. Like you said, it sets a nice atmosphere.
