Giocoso Appogiatura

Giocoso. Joyful in Italian. Appogiatura. Grace note, Italian musical term. An appogiatura is a small note thrown in at the last second that adorns and embellishes the beauty of the piece. This is a blog that chronicles the joy of small grace notes in the life of music that God has given me.
