Turning Tables

It is no secret that I love Adele’s album 21.  I was so excited for her when her song was used on Glee because it helped her beautiful music get the recognition it deserves.  It is so refreshing and such a joy to listen to something soulful and beautiful in a world where trashy pop music dominates so heavily.  While I love Ke$ha and B*Spears their music is junk food while Adele is soul food.  We learned a piece to the song Turning Tables in Rachel’s Jazz class on Saturday and it was so beautiful that I simply had to share it.  The piece captures the desire we have to control our emotions.  We try and pick ourselves up and push ourselves forward down the path we have chosen even if it is contradicts our heart.  And despite our best efforts there are emotional outbursts that happen as we try and separate ourselves from our feelings.
