Larry G. Alexander

UKers,

I have reached the seventh decade+ of my life.

A couple of weeks ago I was thinking about my younger days and wrote "Elegy For My Youth".

My best to all.

Go heavy on the "young" part please, Miss Fran. laugh.gif

Thank you for 'aving a go at "Elegy...". I am glad that it pleases you.

Regards,

Was that a Motley Crue reference, Mr Alexander? rofl.gif Sorry-I suppose at least we're keeping your thread bumped to the top of the boards! tongue.gif biggrin.gif

I say...I don't know Motley Crue from steak and kidney pie. I'm old. tongue.gif

They're an American glam metal band from the 80s, so no excuse, I'm afraid! biggrin.gif

I confess to not liking either steak & kidney or Motley Crue, but I really like your elegy Larry. I'd love to hear this played by a real live orchestra smile.gif

So are they laugh.gif

Larry, is there a local orchestra, or maybe youth Music Centre near you that you could take your music to? You have some really nice stuff here, it seems a shame for it to be limited to computer sounds.
Just a thought smile.gif

We have many music groups here including the East Texas Symphony orchestra. I just don't have enough strength left to pursue live performance of my music.

Thanks very much for your nice thoughts.
