I’ve been recommended by several mentors to check out Bruckner’s work, so to have this in my collection is a nice touch. I found this album at a local Goodwill Store. When I bought it, I honestly thought it was a “best of” compilation album. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/648395b7e3cb266ba5f3fbf2/8cd74db1-ba39-4815-aa1f-9fb684bf22a3/The_Miseducation_of_Lauryn_Hill.png The Listening Nook - Week 2 - An Unexpected Favorite - Released in 1998, this is the debut album of Lauryn Hill, and is the only studio album Hill has released to date. This album is one I hope everyone listens to at some point. This album is a unique blend of Soul, Reggae, R&B, and Hip Hop with fantastic songwriting. From “Lost Ones”, “Doo Wop (That Thing)”, “Superstar”, “Forgive Him Father”, it’s hard to find a song that that doesn’t combine ear-catching hooks and melodies with hard-hitting verses that encourage repeated listening. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/648395b7e3cb266ba5f3fbf2/4dc4ced7-1da7-4fb5-9ae3-5d4d53a34d94/R-16238768-1605890989-2835.jpg The Listening Nook - Week 2 - An Unexpected Favorite - . https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/648395b7e3cb266ba5f3fbf2/ced0f5d6-ae25-431a-bb8b-f69af7e4656c/IMG_1967.jpg The Listening Nook - Week 2 - An Unexpected Favorite - To think… a Baritone voice was once popular… not just a Bari-tenor, but an actual baritone. Taylor’s voice is by no means jaw-dropping or flashy, but straight forward and easy, comforting you that you’re in good hands. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/648395b7e3cb266ba5f3fbf2/9f073c5b-b2ff-4ef4-ba14-081936e2f0d9/R-4219914-1358887801-8847.jpg The Listening Nook - Week 2 - An Unexpected Favorite - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.elijahculpmusic.com/the-listening-nook/week-one monthly 0.5 2025-10-07 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/648395b7e3cb266ba5f3fbf2/7f05a1e6-b1c0-485d-9b70-455a40f3e04f/Carole_King_-_Music_%28album%29.png The Listening Nook - Week 1 - The Starting Point - I came across this album at a Goodwill store. Thinking that the title was “Carol King Music”, I thought it was a “best of” compilation album. I found this album at a local Goodwill Store.

A favorite piece off of this album is “An Outdoor Adventure”, and I will definitely be revisiting this for further listening/study!. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/648395b7e3cb266ba5f3fbf2/1c741cea-5edc-47b9-bc8f-4686c71a1ea3/frank-ocean-blond_sq-c949586de86261136541d9e21e1860dcc43155f9.jpg The Listening Nook - Week 1 - The Starting Point - With my composition and music production students, I like to make assigned listening a two-way street. Rather than me simply assigning pieces for my students to study, I ask them to give me things to listen to as well. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/648395b7e3cb266ba5f3fbf2/bd7aab22-a683-431e-bf4a-64aa13d99082/Brahms.jpg The Listening Nook - Week 1 - The Starting Point - This is less of a specific album as it is a singular piece. While browsing a record store, I found “Music From the World’s Greatest Composers”, a collection of 12 classical LPs organized and published by Reader’s Digest in the 1960s. Pretty cool that these have lasted this long, and not a bad find for a dollar! I may include works from this collection from time to time, and this is one of them. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/648395b7e3cb266ba5f3fbf2/699f91de-1d83-457f-8c71-619f6c257c27/71pUTpolhGL._UF8941000_QL80_.jpg The Listening Nook - Week 1 - The Starting Point - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.elijahculpmusic.com/home daily 1.0 2026-03-19 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/648395b7e3cb266ba5f3fbf2/c9241a2a-4e5f-46bc-83ce-7a2590f6339d/IMG_0984.jpg https://www.elijahculpmusic.com/about daily 0.75 2025-07-22 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/648395b7e3cb266ba5f3fbf2/5f1e1a6b-3812-442c-9c36-a8ddbdb250b3/IMG_0956.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/648395b7e3cb266ba5f3fbf2/cc2f3b1d-8885-4e98-8013-099b14cf664e/IMG_1281.jpg https://www.elijahculpmusic.com/contact daily 0.75 2026-03-19 https://www.elijahculpmusic.com/collaborate daily 0.75 2026-03-19 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/648395b7e3cb266ba5f3fbf2/cc2f3b1d-8885-4e98-8013-099b14cf664e/IMG_1281.jpg https://www.elijahculpmusic.com/studio daily 0.75 2026-03-06 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/648395b7e3cb266ba5f3fbf2/794013e1-fcde-4595-a5b2-9fc81445fab5/IMG_1385.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/648395b7e3cb266ba5f3fbf2/1768236947632-C04EAO1FU8RB3VQ9WZZ8/unsplash-image-PukZSAi_K5o.jpg https://www.elijahculpmusic.com/arrangements daily 0.75 2025-07-25 https://www.elijahculpmusic.com/studio-policy daily 0.75 2025-07-25 https://www.elijahculpmusic.com/student-portal daily 0.75 2026-02-10 https://www.elijahculpmusic.com/compositions daily 0.75 2026-03-21 https://www.elijahculpmusic.com/compositions/tttds monthly 0.5 2025-06-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/648395b7e3cb266ba5f3fbf2/497ad08c-f581-491b-b358-3dabb67e2d1b/image_123650291.JPG https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/648395b7e3cb266ba5f3fbf2/00e7d66c-4858-4aac-99c1-8ec2c12d4893/presence.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/648395b7e3cb266ba5f3fbf2/ceb52852-bae2-4902-83e9-4d89806ac1ac/passing1.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/648395b7e3cb266ba5f3fbf2/eb06ea4b-4e78-4d21-85de-f3e26a6b5961/memory.jpg https://www.elijahculpmusic.com/upcoming-projects daily 0.75 2025-07-22 https://www.elijahculpmusic.com/upcoming-projects/non-violence-major-work monthly 0.5 2025-06-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/648395b7e3cb266ba5f3fbf2/ebaa1d16-4ebf-4d61-9171-3eaed92518f2/IMG_1321+%281%29.jpeg https://www.elijahculpmusic.com/upcoming-projects/waiting-in-silence monthly 0.5 2025-06-10 https://www.elijahculpmusic.com/upcoming-projects/able-piano-suite monthly 0.5 2025-06-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/648395b7e3cb266ba5f3fbf2/40a72278-395b-4194-8745-729969ed4e3f/Jacqueline-632.jpg Upcoming Projects - Able - Piano Suite https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/648395b7e3cb266ba5f3fbf2/37f05a01-ff7a-4040-9eef-ae1e0b856c3d/IMG_1255.jpg Upcoming Projects - Able - Piano Suite https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/648395b7e3cb266ba5f3fbf2/f5ad3513-353e-4721-925a-a7df3b7db628/Resized_20250329_170216_1743282361557.JPEG Upcoming Projects - Able - Piano Suite
