Acouple of little things I have found today:

The coolest blogroll in the universe.

So you want to write a fugue?

Text by Glenn Gould:

But never be clever for the sake of being clever,
For a canon in inversion is a dangerous diversion.
And a bit of augmentation is a serious temptation,
While a stretto diminution is an obvious solution,
While a stretto, stretto, stretto diminution is a very, very obvious
solution.
So never be clever for the sake of being clever, for the sake of showing
off.
Never be clever for the sake of showing off!

So you want to write a fugue?
But never be clever for the sake of showing off.
You’ve got the urge to write a fugue. You’ve got the nerve to write a
fugue.
So go ahead and try to write one, try to write one.
No, never be clever for the sake of being clever.
But do try to write a fugue that we can sing.
Write us a good fugue, one that we can sing.
Oh, come and try.
Oh, why don’t you try?
Oh, won’t you try and write one we can sing.
So write a fugue that we can sing.
Now, why don’t you try to write one?
Yes, come, let’s try.
Write us a fugue that we can sing. Now come along.
