Spring Cleaning: Warning
If you know the infamous PDQ Bach, then you know the geeky delight of classical music insider jokes. I decided to try my hand at creating a fictional composer, as Peter Schickele did with PDQ Bach. My composer’s name was … Continue reading
Spring Cleaning: Camp-of-the-Woods Grace
I told you I was going to air some dirty laundry. Here it is: an early iteration of The Choir of Gregs. In this instance, we’re singing a song that I assume is called “Grace.” We sang it before every … Continue reading

Revenge of the Killer Bs: Ridiculous Outtake
The Choral Scholars, Norma de Waal Malefyt and I produced a CD with 22 tracks (Cry Out to God!). But we also recorded all the “B Sides” you’ve been enjoying here over the last few weeks, as well as reading 200 … Continue reading

Theophiles: Jingle Bells
Are you ready to faint from cuteness? When Theo was three or so, I put him to bed and then about a half hour later I heard sounds coming from the room he shared with Simon. It’s not unusual for … Continue reading

Theophiles: Yisha Boo
How long, you wonder, has this bath time songwriting been going on? This recording is from about three years ago, when Theo was five. For some reason he was saying the nonsense syllables “yisha boo” over and over again. I … Continue reading

Theophiles: Who Is Dumb?
The Scheers are an affirming lot. That’s why bath time produces no Barney-style “You’re special” mantras, but instead a song called “Who Is Dumb?” This may never win the Scheers a spot on the Disney Channel, but it has a … Continue reading

Theophiles: Origami
This summer, Simon and Theo would regularly drag chairs and a lemonade-style stand to the end of our driveway to hold a sale. It was never primarily about making money as much as holding an event. For example, one day … Continue reading
