Guitar Favorites
I recently started guitar lessons through an introductory course here at UR, and I have an ever growing list of songs that I’d love to learn one day. Here are some tunes on the guitar that I enjoy!
I have finally reached my fourth annual Pantone playlist, just in time for my last semester as a student employee at the Parsons Music Library. 2025’s color of the year is Mocha Mousse—a warm, inviting hue that captures our desire to nurture ourselves and others. Pantone describes Mocha Mousse as a velvety, gentle mocha tone that enriches mind, body, and soul with its comforting sophistication. Pantone collaborated with Spoonflower, Pura, and Libratone to celebrate this trend. Spoonflower introduced a collection of fabrics in Mocha Mousse, Pura created a line of artisanal candles based on mocha mousse, and Libratone launched earbuds in mocha mousse. Here are 18 songs I believe are a mix of mellow and cozy warmth.
Welcome back to Parsons Playlists! Today’s playlist is curated by Music Library student assistant Christine (class of 2025) and features some tunes that capture the vibes of the end of summer.
End of Summer
As we near the end of summer weather, trips to the river/beach, and lemonade evenings, there is a both sense of nostalgia and a sigh of reluctance as we prepare ourselves for the upcoming semester. This playlist captures that bittersweet end. Best played at sunset while walking around campus or driving slowly with the windows down.
