Don't have the CALM app yet? Fear not! My love letter to Notation episode is here to help you rest that weary body and heavy eyelids. 

Cozy up with your favorite blanket and hear me wax poetic about my love for the art of notation (the art of creating sheet music). While some composers view notation time as drudgery, I find it soothing and a constant reminder of how the human body moves to make music. Notation is creating a choreography manual for a musician to read and react to. In an ever increasing computerized, AI-ized, automated world, the act of drawing musical notes on a page for a human to read and move their body to match feels like a quiet, subversive act. I will never tire of watching humans play music together. Notation is one way to keep those muscles moving.
