This lovely piece is one of a set of fusions of Baroque and Brazilian music by the Brazilian composer Heitor Villa-Lobos. (Thanks, Wikipedia) This isn’t a recent video, but I’m re-sharing it as a way of releasing old body shame. When this video was taken, I was bothered by the way my fat body moved…

The Fat Lady Sings: Lindley sings Caledonia

ByLindley Ashline June 25, 2020April 19, 2021

The Fat Lady Sings: Lindley sings Quanta Qualia by Patrick Hawes

ByLindley Ashline April 2, 2020April 12, 2021

Lindley Ashline and Ann Duweke singing Patrick Hawes’ “Quanta Qualia” at the Hope for Japan Concert, November 19, 2011. I fell in love with Hayley Westenra’s rendition of this piece, and from there discovered all of Hawes’ mesmerizing music. It was such a joy to be able to perform Quantia Qualia. This isn’t a recent…
