The video portion of this site grows and grows. As I make more vids of my performances, I'll continue to post what I'm doing and hope that you're interested enough to make return visits!Fri, 2 May 2008 01:01:01 PST http://www.jessicawilliams.com/news.htmlExciting musical news of interest, medical updates on my hypothyroidism - gotcha, huh? - cute photos of little Angel the Boston Terrier, links to interesting places and spaces, new Music that I've just completed, movies and books I've read recently, all presented to expand your mind and keep you up on the news, as you won't find it on network television. Updates every few days.Fri, 2 May 2008 01:01:01 PST http://www.jessicawilliams.com/initiative.htmlDo we actually feel comfortable and secure depending on the whims of the tin-eared music promoters, administrators, and record executives to provide us with a reasonable living? Self-determination is the answer. There are ways to take back and revitalize our music and our art and thus our lives. And not be playing for 1959 wages.Fri, 2 May 2008 01:01:01 PST http://www.jessicawilliams.com/currents/hypo.htmlEver been tired, all of the time? Just figured that maybe it was life getting you down? Ever think that maybe you have a low thyroid? I found out that I have NONE: my thyroid has been dead for like five years. Here's how it feels, and a commentary on what the first weeks and monthes on Levothyroxine - otherwise known as Synthroid - are like for me.Fri, 2 May 2008 01:01:01 PST http://www.jessicawilliams.com/currents/2008_piano.htmlI am still learning about the piano, and more now than ever. Instead of trying to sound like a saxophone player, I began some time ago to focus on my approach to my instrument. Everything here, from sitting low, like Glenn Gould, to removing the fall-board, to tuning the treble end sharp and driving piano technicians to distraction.Fri, 2 May 2008 01:01:01 PST http://www.jessicawilliams.com/shop.htmlTATUM'S ULTIMATUM, a tribute to Art Tatum, solo acoustic piano, has been a consistent seller. And now out is SONGS FOR A NEW CENTURY - on Origin Arts - DEEP MONK, PROPHETS, BLOOD MUSIC, VITAL SIGNS, and more. These albums are ONLY AVAILABE HERE and NOWHERE ELSE! Plus 32 other albums. Much more coming as the year progresses. If it's a year old, though, doesn't mean it's obsolete, either. Maybe if it's by Britney Spears. Not if it's made by moi.Fri, 2 May 2008 01:01:01 PST http://www.jessicawilliams.com/currents/index.htmlEverything but the kitchen sink, and that's coming soon. Politics, which really gets to my detractors, plus opinion, always strong but fair, and dreams. We just don't dream enough in this culture. Well, I am having plenty of dreams, all doable in this lifetime. After all, we're supposed to be Amuricans, not sheep! Also, my general attitudes about creativity and what it means to be a musician, an artist, and a thinker. That's something you don't find too much of lately ... thinking.Fri, 2 May 2008 01:01:01 PST
