These antibiotics are wonderful, only two more days to go...amazing!

I think Barber and Vaughn Williams have done some sublime work

I will have to check them out.

Barber’s Adagio is pretty nice.

[Kathy in Alaska]

I am off for home as soon as I shut down. Back in a bit.

☺

How cool would that be if music like this was still hip among the masses. Turn on the radio and the DJ says: "Alright, comin' in at number 1 most requested this week is something brand new from my man Haydn off his LP "Symphony no.49 in F minor" which drops next week. Hot off the presses for ya, this is I "Adagio "La Passione"" right here on 95.9, you're number one hip-hop and classical music station."

Naw.

Drive safely

Barber: School for Scandal Overture

The second subject at the 2 minute mark is gorgeous. And Barber uses sonatina format.

[mylife]

Neither Barber nor Williams were prolific, but when then hit it they git it.
Pachabel was not that prolific either

We had a station like that in Miami, then they went to electronic dance music.

So then I tried listening to NPR, but they dedicated a whole program to LGBT Classical composers (most of whom would spin in their graves if they being outed at something-thousand kilowatts!) and i just turned it off. Grrrr. How to ruin a good thing.

Barber: "Souvenirs" for Piano 4-Hands, Op. 28

[left that other site]

Ah yes...Pachabel. Instant wedding processional music for people who don’t want it to be too “holy” LOL!

This sounds very familiar to me...i just didn’t know what it was! :-)

[Publius]

Barber: "Dover Beach" for Baritone and String Quartet, Op. 3

Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau with the Julliard Quartet. Barber nails the Matthew Arnold poem.

Classical is classical but hey, Puccini basically wrote soap operas for the “Pop” market.

I will have to listen tomorrow...i am still not 100% so i am going to bed early to let the antibiotics do their magic.

((((HUGS))))

I like verdi better than Puccini...more “bombastic”! LOL!

[mylife]

Needs Samuel Ramey on Baritone

[Publius]

For tomorrow.

Barber: "The Monk and His Cat"

The piano is supposed to be a cat meowing, purring and climbing around the keys. The first time I heard this song, my screen went blurry. This is Leontyne Price singing.
