Jimmy Durante
"The Great Schnozzola"

In a sense Jimmy Durante truly was "the musical nose". Capitalizing on his rather large nose (his "Schnozzola"), he was one of America's most familiar and popular entertainers of the 1920s through the 1970s.

Here he is with a young Frank Sinatra in the 1947 movie It Happened in Brooklyn singing "The Song's Gotta Come From The Heart".

From Musical Nosebits

It's always exciting for me when I come across a piece of music I haven't heard before that then becomes a music gem for me. Music Gems are those pieces of music that are somewhat obscure and not generally well known by the masses. But they still have a refreshing, intrinsic, emotive, and timeless beauty about them. Here are a few "Classical" and "New Age" music gems I've come across.

In the long history of music, the arts, and technology sometimes its a bad idea to predict the future, to pass judgement that something or someone(s) can't be good or can't succeed. "Eat Your Words" is a list of quotations that have failed to stand up to the test of time.

"The Jealous Sister" by Andrew Huggan is not exactly a warm and cuddly music story. It is also not for the faint of heart. But this story is full of a heavy accented Scottish broque so it would be fun to read out load.

"What Singers Should Do With Their Hands" by Rick Rakauskas.

"When you've taken a few singing lessons and you have enough confidence to perform in public, you might start wondering what you're going to do with your hands when you're on stage. Do you wave them around like a conductor? Do you stick them in your pockets? Or what do you do?"
