Tonight I created a Handmeon of Claudio Arrau performing over seven hours of Chopin’s solo piano compositions. Along the way, I did some writing about how it impressed me. Then I wrote a personal blog post talking about that a bit, mostly to let people know it existed, but also to pitch the idea that if you register you can not only comment on posts, but you can bookmark the Handmeon and request a sojourn.

We may need to highlight this a bit more: If you join Handmeon, you have access to a lot of cool stuff that is circulating, for free, with a lot of interesting thoughts and photos and reflections and meaning attached online to the actual object. You can sign up to host an object, and maybe, just maybe, a current or future host will send it to you, with the understanding that you’ll enjoy it for a while and pass it on.

Having named the Handmeon, the personal blog post, and this post all with the same title, this is also an on-going test of the Google ranking algorithm. I’ll be earching for “Arrau’s Chopin” every so often, and we’ll see what results are returned.
