Discovering our musical world

October 28, 2019November 4, 2019 drjonesmusic

Musicking (Online discussion Oct 28-Nov 3)

Well, I've been afraid of changin' / 'Cause I've built my life around you / But time makes you bolder / Even children get older / And I'm getting older, too

October 20, 2019October 28, 2019 drjonesmusic

Music and disability (Online discussion Oct 21-27)

My hands are small, I know, / But they're not yours they are my own / But they're not yours they are my own / And I am never broken

Music and gender (Online discussion Oct 14-20)

'Cause I'm just a girl, little ol' me / Well don't let me out of your sight / Oh, I'm just a girl, all pretty and petite / So don't let me have any rights

Music and the brain (Online discussion Sep 16-22)

It's poetry in motion / She turned her tender eyes to me / As deep as any ocean / As sweet as any harmony / Mm, but she blinded me with science

The ethos of now: What makes 2019 “2019”? (Online discussion Sep 9-15)

Hundred bands in my pocket, it's on me / Hundred deep when I roll like the army / Get more bottles, these bottles are lonely / It's a moment when I show up, got 'em sayin', "Wow"

Our best practices (Online discussion Sep 2-8)

One taught me love / One taught me patience / And one taught me pain / Now, I'm so amazing
