Designing to classical music — **A typical day at the jewelry bench**

Music as a calming influence

I love to spend time at the jewelry bench. In fact it is my FAVORITE way to spend my time. Yes I do love the outdoors as well. Hiking when the weather permits is invigorating and fun. However, my time at the bench is precious. How do I keep my concentration? Music! I love music that is strictly instrumental. Often songs are distracting when I am contemplating a new design or soldering a tricky join with the torch.

Classical Music is the Best

For me the best most relaxing music is classical. I have always been a lover of Mozart, Hayden and JS Bach. Now with the advantage of a terrific classical music station KBACH I can enjoy these favorites and find new favorites as well. Did you know there are LOTS of BACH composers? JS Bach had lots of children and several of them became composers too. Who knew?

For our wedding my husband and I chose the Pachelbel Canon performed by a string quartet. Every time I hear this Canon it brings back those happy memories.

I put together this short video so you can see me in action. Often I am even keeping time with the beat while working!
