Uncial Examples

[redmanca]

Copperplate and Spencerian seem to get a lot of love around here, and rightfully so, but uncial is my favorite. How about an uncial thread?

I was playing around with some more free-flowing uncial tonight. Maybe I got a little carried away, but I think it looks neat. This is from The Lord of the Rings, part of Frodo's song about Gandalf in Lorien.

This is the first page of a Visitors' Book.

I would like to have had a copy of the page after signing, but I no longer had access to it!

I saw Martha Argerich, but where is Michelangeli Benedetti? I din't find Ray Bryant, either. Do I need to keep looking?

They're not there.

These are just some of my favourites. I just wrote them down, as they occurred to me. There are so many, I could have written all day!

True, but you couldn't leave out Oscar Peterson or Michel Petrucciani, no matter what. Lovely writing! This would be fun to pass around on Facebook for all the musician folks . . .
