Day 157 of My Italian Learning Journal*
_____________________
What a pleasant surprise. I had noticed audio problems
with my PC. Then I suspected that the issue could be my wireless headphones. Then
I was becoming concerned that the culprit was my PC – the thought of replacing
it was not pleasing, since I do have quite a bit of software programs loaded. Recalling
the old question, Is it plugged in? I began tracing wires and connections.
Solution? – the power plug for the external speakers was not completely plugged
in. Then, to test the sound production again I searched on youtube for some
music to play. I came across Natalie Cressman, whom I had never heard before. Natalie
is an American jazz vocalist and trombonist. II was simply enchanted, not only
by her beautiful voice, but also by her trombone artistry. Below I have embedded
one of her youtube videos.(Followiing the video is a practice script in Italian . . . grammar corrections welcome.)
