  GTR Stands & The Frames 1993 by Philip Rogan

  Glen Hansard the recent Oscar winner shared with his duet partner Markéta Irglová for Best Original Song in a Feature Film for “Falling Slowly” from the flick, “Once” shot as he said on two handycams. / Busking since the age of 13 Hansard and The Frames had been Irelands best known undiscovered band, even though they had and have a worldwide fan base. Due to my Austrian friend Michaela’s love of The Frames and all things musical in Dublin I managed to take this photo, it was a short time (considering the intervening years) after he played Outspan in Alan Parkers “The Commitments” alongside Colm Meaney, Rob Strong, Bronagh Gallagher, Andrea Corr amongst a host of others including Lance Daly as the kid with the Harmonica see huge list: Jimmy Rabbitte Robert Arkins / Steven Clifford Michael Aherne / Imelda Quirke Angeline Ball / Natalie Murphy Maria Doyle Kennedy / Mickah Wallace Dave Finnegan / Bernie McGloughlin Bronagh Gallagher / Dean Fay Felim Gormley / Outspan Foster Glen Hansard / Billy Mooney Dick Massey / Joey “The Lips” Fagan Johnny Murphy / Derek Scully Kenneth McCluskey / Deco Cuffe Andrew Strong / Mr Rabbitte Colm Meaney / Mrs Rabbitte Anne Kent / Sharon Rabbitte Andrea Corr / Darren Rabbitte Gerard Cassoni / Linda Rabbitte Ruth Fairclough / Tracey Rabbitte Lindsay Fairclough / Greg Michael O’Reilly / Duffy Liam Carney / Pawnbroker Ger Ryan / Father Molloy Mark O’Regan / Roddy the Reporter Phelim Drew / Dave From Eejit Records Sean Hughes / Ray Philip Bredin / Imelda’s Sister Aoife Lawless / Kid With Harmonica Lance Daly

  Zeppelin by oneillstudios

  The Zeppelin. Almost daily, a huge Zeppelin circles Lake Constance. Why you ask? Well, because Mr Zeppelin (or Herr Zeppelin) is from here. I shot this yesterday on my way to work as it flew overhead. Normally, it circles the lake, but yesterday it flew into Switzerland.

  Cellist's Steps 01 by ragman

  Cremono Italy The violincello, usually abbreviated to cello, or ‘cello, plural celli (the c is pronounced [tʃ], as in the ch in “checkers”so it is like “Chell-lo”) is a bowed string instrument. A person who plays a cello is called a cellist. The cello is used as a solo instrument, in chamber music, and as a member of the string section of an orchestra. Antonio Stradivari (1644 – 1737) is universally acknowledged as one of the ‘giants’ of the violin making world. Not only was he the consummate craftsman but he continually experimented with the design and development of the instruments he crafted. He is regarded by most to be the greatest violin / maker to have ever lived. Pizzicato / In pizzicato playing, the string is plucked directly with the fingers or thumb. Usually this is done with the right hand, while the bow is held away from the strings by the rest of the hand or (for extended passages) set down. A single string can be played pizzicato, or double, triple, or quadruple stops can be played. Occasionally, a player must bow one string with the right hand and simultaneously pluck another with the left. This is marked by a ”+” above the note. Strumming of chords is also possible, in guitar fashion. Col legno / Col legno is the technique in which the player uses the wood rather than the hair of the bow on the strings. Usually this is a percussive technique (properly called col legno battuto) with no sustaining of the sound. The much less common alternative is col legno tratto which requires that the wood is drawn across the string as the hair is in a normal bow stroke. Spiccato / In spiccato playing, the strings are not “drawn” by the bow hair but struck by it, while still retaining some horizontal motion, to generate a more percussive, crisp sound. It may be performed by using the wrist to “dip” the bow into the strings. Spiccato is usually associated with lively playing. On a violin, spiccato bowing comes off the string, but on a cello, the wood of the bow may rise briskly up without the hair actually leaving the string. Staccato / In staccato, the player moves the bow a small distance and stops it on the string, making a short sound, the rest of the written duration being taken up by silence. Legato / Legato is a technique where the notes are smoothly connected without accents or breaks.
