Pink armadillos
Really.

Pink Fairies: The World’s Smallest Armadillo Has A Unique Double Skin

Pink fairy armadillos are incredibly unusual, incredibly rare, and incredibly special.

What a coincidence. I have just been listening to — and considering learning — a piano piece titled “Pinkfairies.”

Here is the link to it on SoundCloud, but I can’t get it to play. Needs further tinkering.

Pinkfairies

Two things came to mind, and they are not necessarily related:

1. The composer (or his music naming marketing advisor) may have chromesthesia

2. More than pink or any color, I hear neuroticism; since we rarely associate “fairies” with “neuroticism,” to me it’s more “neurotic gremlins” than “Pinkfairies.” Big Grin

BTW it plays fine on an iPad.

A little neuroticism in moderation is fine with me. Big Grin

I may decide on a different piece by that composer; this one is way difficult.

It’s part of an idea I have for a program of music by various composers, all of whom have the last name Feldman.

BTW, Pinkfairies is also the common name of a certain American wildflower.
