Christmas Canon

Johann Pachelbel (b. 1653 – d. 1706)

Johann Pachelbel’s Canon in D is one of the most beautiful pieces ever written.  Little is known about the circumstances behind the composition.  Here, the Trans-Siberian Orchestra gives it a Christmas twist.

Merry Christmas

and

all the best to everyone in 2019!

The Shelter Buddies Reading Program

This is such a great idea.

 

“The Shelter Buddies Reading Program at the Humane Society of Missouri was designed to help our shelter dogs become more adoptable. Participants sit outside of the dogs kennel and read to them, which helps shy dogs learn to relax around people, while teaching high-energy dogs that calm behavior is desirable. When children read stories to the dogs, it also helps them develop their own reading skills.”
