We have this time a month of challenging segues, as a disconcerting number of the songs selected for the March playlist have what music folks call a "cold" ending--which means a song that has an actual end point, often an abrupt one, versus a song that fades out. The more abrupt an ending, the harder it can be to create an effective segue; and an extra problem this month is that a noticeable number of songs likewise feature cold openings, starting either suddenly or loudly or both. This is the first time I can remember having to change a number of songs around, or even kick songs out of the mix, based on an inability to construct a workable segue. And there remain a few here that are a bit bumpy for my taste. But it's worth it, I hope, for the songs to follow. For more info visit https://fingertipsmusic.com/?p=22034
