The Blog Has up and Moved

Please go to symphoniadomestica.wordpress.com to find the new home of our blog. All the previous posts have been exported there.

The reason for the move is two-fold:

1. Wordpress (the new blog host) has some features that Blogspot does not. At Wordpress anyone can comment and leave their name, no need for an account or "Anonymous." There is also a feature that shows recent comments so we can see who has left us a note. Wordpress also keeps viewing statistics; it's just a bit more sophisticated.

2. The name for our blog comes from a composition by Richard Strauss. He wrote a symphony that depicted his life at home with his wife and son. While some call it Sinfonia domestica (the proper Latin/Italian spelling), Strauss himself titled it Symphonia Domestica, and that is the "correct" title as recognized by musicians today. I thought our blog's name should reflect the official spelling.

There you have it. We hope to see you at the new site!
