Good job, Mairdie. I liked it, especially with Mozart’s symphony played by a period orchestra (I am guessing from JEG, it is the English Baroque Soloists), which goes well with the paintings.
Many thanks, nw. Much appreciated. The other option was
Bach-Gustav-Leonhardt-Herbert-Tachezi
Cembalokonzerte-BWV-1052-1057-1064
04-!!!-Konzert-F-Dur-BWV-1057-I-Allegro.wav
But it’s 7 minutes long and it’s really hard to hold an audience that long. I’d need something different than a simple chronological exhibition. But that piece has the same light feel that would have worked.
The way we work, husband transfers our CDs to the file system and I have limited info in the file names. All I have is that the CD included Symphonies 29 and 33. They’re piled into boxes after transferring, so not easy to look it up. Apologies.
I want to do something with the Academic school and I’m wandering through Carolus-Duran and Edouard Joseph Dantan and William-Adolphe Bouguereau just now. Nudes don’t go over here very well, but I was raised on them so I adore them. Though when I took life sketching, I’ll admit it was VERY difficult to draw while staring at the ceiling. Also when the model stands behind you with almost nothing on. They have to keep their muscles tensed through the entire sketching session so you get delineation, so it’s VERY difficult work.
I already have my project created for the Surrealism school but, for some reason, I’m not as excited about it as I thought I’d be. Maybe I’m still reacting to discovering the Art Institute sold my absolutely FAVORITE painting of Village of the Mermaids.
