Tosca, Opera by Giacomo Puccini. Here is a complete guide with a thorough explanation of the story, something about the background, and the voices.

Questo mese non potevo non partecipare al gioco di Flavia: l'unico inimitabile imperdibile Recipe-tionist, che stavolta ci porta dritti dritti nella cucina di Francesca. Francesca, che in ottobre abbiamo l'onore di avere tra le Starbookers, è una bolognese DOC (anche DOCG và!), ha un viso da bambina e un sorriso che ti stende :) Dal suo blog ho scelto una ricetta di una semplicità disarmante... primo perché ho zero tempo a disposizione, secondo perché è di una golosità unica e terzo perché non c'è niente di più bolognese della Spuma di Mortadella!!! L'unica mia piccola modifica rispetto alla versione "canonica" di Francesca è stata l'aggiunta della granella di pistacchi (niente di originale, lo so...). ingredienti per 6 persone: 300 g di Mortadella di Bologna IGP 100 g di ricotta vaccina fresca 1 cucchiaio di parmigiano grattugiato 1 cucchiaio di panna liquida fresca granella di pistacchi Tagliate la mortadella a cubetti e mettetela in un mixer insieme alla ricotta, al parmigiano e alla panna. Frullate fino a ottenere una crema omogenea. Decorate con granella di pistacchi e servite su crostini caldi. Tutto qui! Note: - Ovviamente la mortadella deve avere il marchio IGP! - La qualità della ricotta è molto importante: non usate quella dei barattolini di plastica del super, compratela più fresca e buona che potete. - I bolognesi spalmano i crostini con un velo di burro, ma io... anche no ;) Con questa ricettina partecipo al Recipe-tionist di Ottobre e faccio mille auguri a Flavia per i 4 anni del suo blog!

I HAVE LIVED FOR MY ART, I HAVE LIVED FOR MY LOVE

From Puccini’s ‘Tosca’, “Vissi d’arte”, or “I lived for art”, arguably one of the most famous arias in all of opera stitched with vibrant colors from Cavaradossi’s paint palette. 4x4 inch hoop.

Initial Ideas: I wanted to do a kind of installation piece of Braille writing. I was inspired by... http://www.fatcap.com/artist/know-hope.html and http://www.antonparsons.co.nz/Gallery/ ...but.... it would take too long.... so... I was given the idea to have Braille written on my skin. http://boingboing.net/2010/01/30/chinese-braille.html What I want to do... wear minimal white clothing, white blindfold, have Braille written all over my skin with paint and/or glue. I want to "see" people's reactions. I want to reach out to them and have them touch me. Bring awareness to being blind, not just in the sense that you can't see, but also what you purposefully ignore. "Touch me. It's so easy to leave me all alone with the memory of my days in the sun. If you touch me, you'll understand what happiness is." -Cats

I have lived for my art. Sir Alfred Gilbert: Icarus, 1882-1884

Digital sheet music for piano, (intermediate) (from Tosca). Bought the piano version and transposed it for a trumpet trio. Tosca's aria in the second act lends itself well to high brass. Trying to get three trumpets playing high notes at pianissimo is why I rate the difficulty as Medium/High.

Picture Credit Lawrence Carroll is an American artist who was born in Australia and moved to California when he was four in 1958. He studied at Moorpark Junior College and then at Art Center College of Design in Pasadena on a full scholarship. In 1984 he moved to New York and in four years he had his first solo show there. The year after that he was invited to an international exhibition by Harald Szeemann in Germany as one of 9 American artists with many other international artists. Since then Lawrence Carroll has done many other national and international shows, participated in Documenta in Kassel, Germany, and is in many permanent collections of various galleries. Untitled (table painting )2009 Oil, wax, house paint and canvas on wood, Newspaper, light and cord 83.5 x w: 62 x d: 15.4 in Picture Credit Carroll makes large mixed media works. His paintings are often muted and seem to be very introspective and thoughtfully created in his approach. I think he has an interesting way of dealing with the materials and telling their story. Some of his work can be see at the ACE Gallery website, here. I also found a kinda funny article with images of Lawrence Carroll's drawings done before bed to help him sleep.

From “Caretakers of Wonder” by Cooper Edens Cooper Edens is a writer and illustrator of children's books. He is a contemporary illustrator who published his first book around 1970. Edens has written and illustrated many of this own books and done illustration work on some of other people's books. “If you have butterflies in your stomach…ask them into your heart.” -from If You’re Afraid of the Dark by Cooper Edens. 1979. The only book of his that I have read is If You're Afraid of the Dark. I have memories of taking this off of my mother's shelf when I was young and enjoying the pictures. I also came to enjoy the writing just as much now that I'm older and it carries special meaning to me. Especially as someone who writes poetry, I would love to have my own published along with my own illustrations! If You’re Afraid of the Dark (cover) by Cooper Edens. 1979 The illustrations by Cooper Edens in If You're Afraid of the Dark have a distinct style. They appear as paper cutouts and collage images. Each image seems to share the quirky fantastical style that Cooper Edens' writing has. The imagery is fun and playful and has a vintage style. “If you find your socks don’t match… stand in a flowerbed.” -from If You’re Afraid of the Dark by Cooper Edens. 1979.
