I didn't think twice about getting double mileage from reviewing J.S. Bach's ethereal Prelude in C minor, BWV 847. It turned out to be nature-inspired.
On a late afternoon trail trek to Tilden Park, I came equipped with a modest Sony Cyber shot digi-cam that provided a generous supply of photos to import to my soundtrack.
But first I recorded the music LIVE on the MAC, before blowing up my hands in an early morning camcorder snatch of my own uploaded playing on you tube. The undertaking was challenging with interspersed interruptions by a droning BART train, Amtrak whistles, a garbage pick-up, whizzing cars, and squeaky buses. Yet chirping birds outside, provided a most welcomed accompaniment.
Before I post video renderings of the Bach composition, here are my stream of favorite photos captured at Tilden as a hiked along a picturesque trail:
