Tale Teller Kids™

Live cello and piano over experimental backing. Apologies for the light expletive, hence parental guidance.
I loved making this track but it does need some tweaking which will happen at some point in the future, probably when I get a professional sound engineer at the studio.

I love doing my own productions but I don't really have time to do it justice as making the acy=tual music is the most intensive part of my daily workload.

If you would like to connect on one of the shows with some chat, your music, and some tips etc, drop me a message. We can do a live link-up on our Skype.

hello guys welcome to the tale teller and tell teller club online all night music extravaganza um now i'm putting all my portfolio stuff on the loop i don't stay up all night darlings i i try but quite often you know i'm getting on a bit and quite often i have to go to bed because i'm just too too tired and i i took a an antihistamine yesterday because i'm allergic to lots and lots of things and it knocked me straight out so um i didn't even put it on last night i didn't even turn you know press the play button in for last night so there was no live radio last night but tonight there's live radio now i've put it on now and what i'll do i think is you know put it on at eight o'clock our time when i'm still lively so you can chat to me and i'll answer but you know come midnight darlings i'm like let's go to sleep anyway i'm going to play for you cowboy which is another one that i've dug up i found now i i received funding a couple of years ago to launch my studio but i've i before that i wasn't a practicing um a digital musician although i studied at university decades ago digital music i was like the only woman in the course well there were two of us i mean it was grim darlings and i just thought i i don't think it's a career that i want to be involved in you know because of this just the manliness of it all it was very highly competitive um not particularly creative i didn't think i i felt that it was much more technical i.t and almost scientific that's that's how i felt and of course it's important how you feel is important you're not going to do well if you don't feel comfortable in an industry but i received funding from futures venture and of course what what we can do now and we learnt during lockdown is we don't need anybody else so it doesn't matter how many men are in the industry does it um i don't have to talk to them i don't have to compete with them or i mean ma in marketing terms of course i do but you know i don't have to go into a studio and not be heard because no men are listening to me i've got my own studio and that's what the funding from futures really did for me it enabled me to set up my own studio and i'm still learning i'm still learning every day so this was cowboy and unfortunately i can't i don't know where the project is because there's some timing issues with it which i do need to sort out if i can but you know maybe i can't and maybe what's done is done um this was recorded live a lot of it rather than um going into a digitally or by midi so um you can kind of get that you've you feel that so the timing's bit out sometimes i can't remember what instruments i used but it was likely to be my cello and definitely my piano um but i really like this one i think it's i love the layers i love its complexity i think sometimes there's a bit too much and it probably it could have done with you know paring down a bit i don't know if a post edit will be able to do that now i'm not sure i want to go back there at this particular moment in my life if i ever find the project again because it's much easier once you've edited something and you've mixed it down and you've just got that mixed file you you know it's too late to sort of go in and and take out some of the instruments but you can do a bit you can do a bit of eq'ing of things um you know to pair them down a...

An episode from the Tale Teller Club Music Podcast.
The Tale teller Club is a contemporary electronica music orchestra made up of robots with Sarnia de la Maré FRSA as composer and conductor.
Music ranges from traditional classical backing tracks for students to use for improvising, to radical experimental dance tracks that are more about experiment and human emotion.

You can catch up with Sarnia each day via the podcasts and book a live interview if you are a fellow musician.

hi so um welcome to saturday night live and i'm gonna um pop this up you'll hear it repeating through the night um but i've popped a lot of stuff up a lot of music stop stuff up and i'm sort of clearing my catalogue now this is called black jeans and this was the very first thing that i did when i was i was very very lucky to receive funding from future venture for an arts project or for artist development and they gave me money for equipment but i hadn't worked out how to use anything yet and although they had bought me a microphone i hadn't worked out how to use it so i actually recorded this um with garageband and a phone and so the very first thing it's around somewhere you can hear it i'm not sure where it is anymore but it was the demo which i i don't have access to anymore um but that was you know pretty grim but i just wanted to kind of get used to things and understand and i was experimenting because that's what i do i'm an experimental electronic musician and um anyway this one i remastered when i bought logic pro well i didn't buy it i got a free um trial but then i went to buy it and they don't make it anymore so i'm sort of i don't they don't make the one the version that works with my computer so i have to wait now to get logic pro again when i you know when i can upgrade my computer which i just can't do so i'm not sure if i can get logic pro 10 anywhere that's the one i need so maybe you can tell me if you're listening to this anyway this was recorded on my phone the cello part and the vocals all the vocals in there were recorded on my phone and then it was mastered on logic pro 10.5 um and now it's here and i like it i really like it and see what you think enjoy it um and i'm going to pop some another one up that i did in a minute called cowboy which is equally as interesting and i do understand that you know the thing is when you work with editing software you get better and better and better at it the more you do it's like anything isn't it it's like my cello you know when i play cello um since lockdown my well i only started cello in during lockdown so you know it's really rocketed my my skill level and it's interesting that that happens with um software as well because you think well it's just there you know what have you got how um creative can it be but it can be incredibly creative and what you learn to do actually is you know the limitations and the possibilities of your software and and you work within that um that sort of paradigm you know you've got the formula there you know you think right but if i play this note on my cello i know that i can bend it or i can pitch shift it or i can put loads of reverb on it or i can do this or do that or whatever or you know and you you think ah it's a bit like a painter so you want to make um blue blue is it blue you make with green and yellow so blue and yellow makes green i think it's that way around you you should know i've been a painter for years and you think yourself right i know that i can make something with with what i have in front of me um and therefore i'm going to make it do you see um i hope that made sense it's a bit convoluted but i i i'm trying to say i think that you get better and better so you will improve however i really like my old stuff because it shows me a very naive and trusting way of working working without knowledge and without understanding and it's very freeing to do that actually and it also makes for more interesting...

chapter 1 of the land that time forgot this is a liberbox recording all librivox recordings are in the public domain for more information or to volunteer please visit librivox.org recording by ralph snelson the land that time forgot by edgar rice burroughs chapter one it must have been a little after three o'clock in the afternoon that it happened the afternoon of june 3rd 1916. it seems incredible that all that i have passed through all those weird and terrifying experiences should have been encompassed within so shortest span as three brief months rather might i have experienced a cosmic cycle with all its changes and evolutions for that which i have seen with my own eyes in this brief interval of time things that no other immortal eye had seen before glimpses of a world past a world dead a world so long dead that even in the lowest cambrian stratum no trace of it remains fused with the melting inner crust it has passed forever beyond the can of man other than in that lost pocket of the earth whether fate has borne me and where my doom is sealed i am here and here must remain after reading this far my interest which already had been stimulated by the finding of the manuscript was approaching the boiling point i had come to greenland for the summer on the advice of my physician and was slowly being bored to extinction as i had thoughtlessly neglected to bring sufficient reading matter being an indifferent fisherman my enthusiasm for this form of sport soon waned yet in the absence of other forms of recreation i was now risking my life in an entirely inadequate boat off cape farewell at the southernmost extremity of greenland greenland as a descriptive appellation it is a sorry joke but my story has nothing to do with greenland nothing to do with me so i shall get through with the one and the other as rapidly as possible the inadequate boat finally arrived at a precarious landing the natives waist deep in the surf assisting i was carried ashore and while the evening meal was being prepared i wandered to and fro along the rocky shattered shore bits of surf harried beach clothed the worn granite or whatever the rocks of cape farewell may be composed of and as i followed the ebbing tie down one of these soft stretches i saw the thing where one to bump into a bengal tiger in the ravine behind the bemini baths one could be no more surprised than was i to see a perfectly good quart thermos bottle turning and twisting in the surf of cape farewell at the southern extremity of greenland i rescued it but i was soaked above the knees doing it and then i sat down in the sand and opened it and in the long twilight read the manuscript neatly written and tightly folded which was its contents you have read the opening paragraph and if you are an imaginative idiot like myself you will want to read the rest of it so i shall give it to you here omitting quotation marks which are difficult of remembrance in two minutes you will forget me my home is in santa monica i am or was junior member of my father's firm we are ship builders of recent years we have specialized on submarines which we have built for germany england france and the united states i know a sub as a mother knows her baby's face and have commanded a score of them on their trial runs yet my inclinations were all toward aviation i graduated under curtis and after a long siege with my father obtained his permission to try for the lafayette escrow deal as a stepping stone i obtained an appointment in the american ambulance service and was on my way to france when three shrill whistles altered in as many seconds my entire scheme of life i was sitting on deck with some of the fellows who were going into the american ambulance service with me my airedale crown prince nobler asleep at my feet when the first blast of the...

My rather Scottish rendition of my latest cello piece.
It is very hard to edit titles on the app so I ALWAYS make loads of mistakes.
Loved working on this great track today with Tale Teller Club and a new arrangement that works for me certainly. Have. listen and see what you think.

hello wonderful people of the internet yet again yes this is my second broadcast today now then i am scottish actually and i realize i sound way way way off from scottish but that's um because my parents sent me to an english public school so that got rid of any scottish accent but i feel quite strongly about scotland you know i'm i warmed it and i wanted to do something really for my mum as well who's very very scottish and has never lost her accent despite living in england for 20 30 40 years um very long time i know that maybe 50 actually i think it's near a 50 or 60. anyway she won't forgive me for revealing her age so i wanted to do something with this kind of scottish film um with the telltale club was my band and i was sort of thinking about you know because i'm a teacher and an analyst and a composer and all these things i think about what makes certain genres unique what makes them feel a certain way etc so thinking about what makes things sound scottish and i i've come upon a couple of things one of them is um there's the sort of big band you know the the kind of scottish marching band that you get up there at the um at the castle when they do the tattoo and so i was thinking about that that sort of rhythm and a sort of marching um and then i was obviously thinking well not obviously but about bagpipes because they've got that sort of um they're quite unique although i think they're from switzer were they from sweet sweden or so they're not actually scottish originally but they came over the water um and then i was thinking about how the um you know the salvation army when they play at christmas and then it got me thinking that you know you this sort of idea of making christmas songs which i've been doing lately because i wanted to do a christmas advent calendar like an audio thing for kids and it struck me that actually scottish music can sound quite christmassy and then i was thinking well what makes scottish music sound christmassy and then i was thinking well that's kind of obvious isn't it it's a hug monet but although hogmanay's um new year we it's the same type time of year isn't it and we use so much tartan for christmas decorations with ribbons and um well ribbons and you know tied logs have always got some sort of tartan surround and there's a lot of tartan going on at christmas i was getting quite curious about this overlap between christmas tartan and scottish um anyway i took the hummuresque which is um devorjak um who it doesn't sound very scottish at all of course not and the piece when i play it was i play this with my cello doesn't sound remotely scottish but what i've done with it i think it sounds very scottish but i really like it so you've got four minutes of sort of scottish um band it feels very like a band and yeah i really like it and i might as well play the adagio from the d minor concerto straight after you must have got two for the price of one um why not and this uh these two will go on my live show later on this evening so um you can catch up with me and all my tunes later on after midnight after midnight so i hope you like it i think it's rather fabulous here's to a very scottish christmas and new year

there we go it's quite browsing isn't it that uh that lovely drum i'm gonna use that in some other things anyway i'm not allowed to play the adagio you'll have to go to the other um the other chat for that i did it earlier because i...

lanzándose desde una cima un águila al 'pacto a un corderito la vio un juego y tratando de imitar al águila se lanzó sobre un carnero pero con tan mal conocimiento en el arte que sus caras se quedaron la lana y batiendo al máximo sus alas no logró soltarse

viviendo el pastor lo que sucedía cogió al huevo y cortando las puntas de sus alas se lo llevó a sus niños le preguntaron sus hijos acerca de qué clase de ave era aquella y les dijo para mí solo es un juego pero él se cree águila punto esfuerzo y dedicación en lo que realmente estás preparado no en lo que no te corresponde

A new composition every day starts with this classic work Adagio from Concerto in D minor BWV 974 by A. Marcello-J.S. Bach for Violin and Piano by TTC Tale Teller Club.

hello wonderful people of the internet welcome to my radio show well of course it's not a radio show is it it's a podcast and i'm i'm probably showing my age saying radio show but i was thinking that radio sounds so much more no how shall i say she's sort of genuine i guess but i think that's just because i'm an old lady isn't it probably um well i'm not that old but relatively speaking i mean i remember radios that's how old i am transistor i had a little transistor thing when i was at boarding school it was a with a wrist hook fabulous how fabulous now we have phones and the other thing i'm i'm buying a bang olufsen telephone uh set up you have to buy you know various bits of it and i mean the penthouse is fairly small and it's only me in the cat and cat's not really going to use the phone however i have four or five rooms and one should really when one is working with landlines have one in each room i feel so i i thought oh i'm going to buy something really fancy now the thing is because everybody is uses telephones these days mobile phones rather um no you know the art of the landline seems to have been lost somewhat so i'm going to resurrect it and i'll tell you why i don't get a phone single signal here in the studio or the penthouse no phone signal at all so one has to rely entirely on the internet and wi-fi and that's rather tricky you know when you want to ring different businesses and things like this they're not all using that facility so i thought well i've got this perfectly good landline that i haven't used for five years so i'm having it all installed and i'm having my bang olufsen put in my my center of a telephonic excellence and i'm not going to lie i'm rather excited

and i'm going to be all old school but i'm not getting a wireless i haven't gone that far yet although while i was searching for um vintage telephones i came across vintage technics music um you know high stack systems and i i recall many years ago i was with a girlfriend of mine and her husband who is a sailor i live in portsmouth near portsmouth it's all very sailory and he uh we'd gone shopping one saturday and um he we went into the technic shop and i mean it was all an orgasmic experience and i sort of promised myself then that one day i would own a technics stack system and i never have absolute um you know what dream shattered when i realized that they're so ridiculously expensive anyway you can get them online now uh on ebay rather and you know these vintage stacks i mean i'm not going to get one because um i i don't know why why am i not well they shake up a lot of room don't they i mean i i can handle so much vintage but when it's room floor hungry um it it's not going to happen i did have a colleague recently and he was a very elderly man i think 89 and i i'd popped around to you know have lunch with him and he had these two flat speakers in gold that looked not dissimilar to radiators and i've been after some of those for a while because they looked just so incredibly chic and wonderful but you have to start doing things like converting them so that they can plug into your um you know your your digital systems which i've got i've i have all that here um i'm very tricky despite wanting to have a landline i'm very high tech well look i'm a digital musician of course i'm high tech talking of that i'm get i did a version of um

uh the adagio by bach so this is the the official title adagio from concerto in d minor bwv 974 by a marcelo and jazz bar for violin and piano and i've done a bit more because i couldn't resist so i've given it a bit more string section and um obviously i've got my synth out because that's my job it is what i do darlings i'm a synth ho and i really like it i think it's worked really well it's just a quick edit i...

today's reading by alex foster www.alexfoster dot me dot uk the invisible man by h.g wells chapter one the strange man's arrival

the stranger came early in february one wintry day through a biting wind and a driving snow the last snowfall of the year over the down walking from bramblehurst railway station and carrying a little black portmanteau in his thickly gloved hand he was wrapped up from head to foot and the brim of his soft felt hat hid every inch of his face but the shiny tip of his nose the snow had piled itself against his shoulders and chest and added a white crest to the burden he carried he staggered into the coaching horses more dead than alive and flung his portmanteau down a fire he cried in the name of human charity a room and a fire he stamped and shook the snow from off himself in the bar and followed mrs hall into her guest parlor to strike his bargain and with that much introduction that and a couple of sovereigns flung upon the table he took up his quarters in the inn

mrs hall lit the fire and left him there while she went to prepare him a meal with her own hands a guest to stop at hyping in the winter time was an unheard of piece of luck let alone a guest who was no hagler and she resolved to show herself worthy of her good fortune as soon as the bacon was well underway and millie her lymphatic aid had been brisked up a bit by a few deathly chosen expressions of contempt she carried the cloth plates and glasses into the parlor and began to lay them with the utmost igla although the fire was burning up briskly she was surprised to see that her visitor still wore his hat and coat standing with his back to her and staring out of the window at the falling snow in the yard his gloved hands were clasped behind him and he seemed to be lost in thought she noticed that the melting snows that still sprinkled his shoulders dripped upon her carpet can i take your hat and coat sir she said and give them a good try in the kitchen no he said without turning she was not sure she had heard him and was about to repeat her question he turned his head and looked at her over his shoulder i prefer to keep them on he said with emphasis and she noticed that he wore big blue spectacles with side lights and had a bush side whisker over his coat collar that completely hid his cheeks and face very well sir she said as you like in a bit the room will be warmer

he made no answer and had turned his face away from her again and mrs hall feeling that her conversational advances were ill-timed laid the rest of the table things in a quick staccato and whisked out of the room when she returned he was still standing there like a man of stone his back hunched his collar turned up his dripping hat brim turned down hiding his face and ears completely she put down the eggs and bacon with considerable emphasis and called rather than said to him your lunches served her thank you he said at the same time and did not stir until she was closing the door then he swung around and approached the table with a certain ego quickness

as she went behind the bar to the kitchen she heard a sound repeated at regular intervals choke choke choke it went the sound of a spoon being rapidly whisked around a basin that girl she said there i clean forgot it it's her being so long and while she herself finished mixing the mustard she gave millie a few verbal stabs for her excessive slowness she had cooked the ham and eggs laid the table and done everything while millie help indeed had only succeeded in delaying...

anne of green gables by l m montgomery chapter 20 a good imagination gone wrong spring had come once more to green gables the beautiful capricious reluctant canadian spring lingering along through april and may in a succession of sweet fresh chilly days with pink sunsets and miracles of resurrection and growth the maples in lover's lane were red budded and little curly ferns pushed up around the dryads bubble away in the barrens behind mr silas sloane's place the mayflowers blossomed out pink and white stars of sweetness under their brown leaves all the schoolgirls and boys had one golden afternoon gathering them coming home in the clear echoing twilight with arms and baskets full of flowery spoil i'm so sorry for people who live in lands where there are no mayflowers said anne diana says perhaps they have something better but there couldn't be anything better than mayflowers could there marilla and diana says that if they don't know what they are then they don't miss them but i think that is the saddest thing of all i think it would be tragic marilla not to know what mayflowers are like and not to miss them do you know what i think mayflowers are marilla i think they must be the souls of the flowers that died last summer and this is their heaven but we had a splendid time today marilla we had our lunch turn in a big mossy hollow by an old well such a romantic spot charlie sloane dared artie gillis to jump over it and artie did because he wouldn't take a dare nobody would in school it is very fashionable to dare mr phillips gave all the mayflowers he found to prissy andrews and i heard him say sweets to the sweet he got that out of a book i know but it shows he has some imagination i was offered some mayflowers too but i rejected them with scorn i can't tell you the person's name because i have vowed never to let it cross my lips we made wreaths out of the mayflowers and put them on our hats and when the time came to go home we marched in procession down the road two by two with our bouquets and wreaths singing my home on the hill oh it was so thrilling marilla all mr silas sloane's folks rushed out to see us and everybody we met on the road stopped and stared after us we made a real sensation not much wonder such silly doings was marilla's response after the mayflowers came the violets and violet veil wasn't purpled with them and walked through it on her way to school with reverent steps and worshiping eyes as if she trot on holy ground somehow she told diana when i'm going through here i don't really care whether gil whether anybody gets ahead of me in class or not but when i'm up in school it's all different and i care as much as ever there's such a lot of different ants in me i sometimes think that's why i'm such a troublesome person if i was just the one and it would be ever so much more comfortable but then it wouldn't be half so interesting one june evening when the orchards were pink blossomed again when the frogs were singing silverly sweet in the marshes about the head of the lake of shining waters and the air was full of the savor of cloverfields and balsamic fur woods anne was sitting by her gable window she had been studying her lessons but it had grown too dark to see the book so she had fallen into wide-eyed reverie looking out past the bows of the snow queen once more be starred with its tops of blossom in all essential respects the little gable chamber was unchanged the walls were as white the pin cushion is hard the chairs as stiffly and yellowly upright as ever yet the whole character of the room was altered it was full of a new vital pulsing personality that seemed to pervade it and to be quite independent of schoolgirl books and dresses and ribbons and even of the cracked blue jug full of apple...

hi guys so i've just got a little bit of music and i wanted to chat briefly about the difference between the children's music that tellteller club does and the grown-up music well the grown-up music there isn't that much of it at the moment we're just about to launch into a winter of um more contemporary experimental music up until now because we've been building the tales hello kids department and because i was teaching there was there's a lot of backing tracks and um tunes that actually were designed to help my students uh you know play along sing along find their ear because i'm a cellist and we you know cellists really really depend on getting our intonation spot on so splitting up um music into classical music particularly into layers really helps with playing along and getting my students ready to play a children with an orchestra because you start to pull out bits and you and you can really hear when you're making a you know a tough note but you also get to know about pacing and things like that so there's a lot of music that we've got here on all the podcasts actually that are directed specifically for children but there is a crossover and a lot of the music you know you can listen to it as an adult with a curious mind and really see what i've done with my synthesizer because i'm completely obsessed with my synthesizer um i absolutely love electronica and i love um pushing sounds that are not traditionally pushed via a synth so i really like doing that look i'm not the first person to do that of course i'm not they've been doing that since the 70s um but it it's i think it's interesting as they bring out each sort of new uh bit of software stretching it and understanding what crazy stuff i can do and there is some really crazy stuff now because i'm not teaching anymore and the schools are really um they're not they're not really up and running because i just don't have the time to teach anymore i'm i'm purely a presenter now these days um and because of that the children's music is going to in a way take a sort of not not quite be center stage anymore but that's not to say that i'm not going to do it um because of course vaporpunk now has his own channel so vapourpunk will be making music specifically um for children but not um not really for teaching as such so it's just a little bit of a sideways um adjustment i guess so most of the music that i'm going to be doing for the coming months is very much electronic experimental synthesizer based and raw cello i'm really keen to get started on that actually and i i think i've had enough of baby talk so um however i'm going to play two wonderful children's pieces that i did recently one's cuddles in the disco which i really like actually i really like this a lot i think this was an attempt to be experimental for young persons you know um i sort of has that kind of feel to it um and the bach uh air on a g-string which via vapour punk is very much for my cellists who can play along and it really pulls out the melody you can really hear it um and it's a great a massively um advantageous piece for improvising you you can really hear the parts and and play you know because i've separated each part into a different instrument and it's very clear um you can follow whichever sort of line you want to so you can think oh i'm going to be the ping ping sound or i'm going to be the vocal you know the the choir sound um i i think that's a really useful way for for teaching so um you know the the podcast is here for access ease of access so and if you have one of our apps um i mean we're all over the internet really but you should be able to follow one or two of the pods that we do and then you can just play it you can put you see what you do is you put one headphone in your ear and the one that's not close to your cello and then you you play along to it it's really super super fun actually um i thought i'm getting reminiscing you see about the stuff that i've done in the over the...
