Attributed to Pablo Picasso, the quote Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once he grows up. is a reminder to artists to capture the relaxed and naïve state of mind of children whose artistic approaches are not yet informed and diluted by the wisdom of years and the expectations of craft. When the normally informed and trained mind can retreat into a more relaxed and naïve state, the results can surprise and sparkle. Andante for String Quartet (Scintillare) captures a childlike, yet informed state of mind, a rare occurrence where music seems to be the only way to depict the liberating feeling.

Scored for traditional string quartet, this short four-minute work was written for an advanced or professional ensemble needing repertoire for educational concerts in k-12 school venues. It's a highly accessible work with a lot of flourish, but still retaining elements of craft, for those in the audience that appreciate string quartet music on a more studied level. This work can also be used by school-aged (16-19 years-old) ensembles who have two advanced violinists paired up with a texturally supportive violist of intermediate ability who doesn't mind the occasional interspersed solo fill, and a rhythmically solid cellist, who will not have a technically difficult part, but still has a very important foundational role to play.

This is probably the most beautiful song ever written. I wasn't much on Country music until I heard this. The harmonies are so tight. This is the first single by Restless Heart that made it big. There was a show on RFD-TV called Larry's Country Diner (now it's The Best Of Larry's Country Diner). They have released songs from this hit variety series. This arrangement is from the release when Restless Heart appeared on the show. It's still as hot as it ever was. Duration = 4:47.

Waltzing Matilda is a song developed in the Australian style of poetry and folk music called a bush ballad. It has been described as the country's unofficial national anthem. The title was Australian slang for travelling on foot (waltzing) with one's belongings in a matilda (swag) slung over one's back. In this arrangement for traditional string quartet (2 violins, viola and cello) I paid special attention to this beautiful melody with a voice division that highlights the harmony well. Full videos of Violão Vadio's arrangements are available on YouTube so you know exactly what you're getting.

While the world was shut down in 2020, American singer-songwriter Stephen Sanchez made the most out of his time by posting videos of his singing on TikTok.
