How pretty!
Thank you so very much Connie!
That really made my day!

*tapping tiny foot*
Hey!
You’re fast running out of cute, Prof!
LOL
This is sheer beauty and a heartbreaker. In the Jesse Stone TV movies on CBS, whenever Jesse, played by Tom Selleck, gets depressed and drunk, this is the recording he puts on.
Brahms: Intermezzo in A Major, Op. 118/2
This one is another gem where Brahms spins some excellent melodies.
While Liszt was writing atonal piano pieces in his final years, Brahms would not go that far. What Brahms does here is work with tonal ambiguity instead. In the middle section, for the first time he settles into a key and sticks with it. But just as quickly he returns to that cloudy ambiguity.
Intermezzo in E-flat minor, Op. 118/6
This has a beginning that drives on rhythmically, and the middle section is pure sweetness.
Intermezzo in E minor, Op. 119/2
This is a short exercise in chords.
Intermezzo in C Major, Op. 119/3
This is one of his best, a kind of march at the beginning. But in the middle, it becomes something quite different, perhaps a love song of sorts. The beginning returns in C Major in broken chords, then turns to E-flat minor in which it ends.
Good evening, bd...((HUGS))...very nice! Ready for a relaxing weekend?

Good evening, ms b, and thanks for spinning tunes for the troops. ((HUGS))
I had and I repeat, HAD the same thing. They shot it up to clear inflammation and I walked out of the clinic pain free. That was over three months ago. The medical insurance that I have allows three injections per year.
Good luck!
Well, I’ve never had much in the way of cute, so I had better watch myself.
LOL - It sounded like a Felice and Boudleaux Bryant tune when the Everly Brothers did it on that PBS special with Chet. It fit them so perfectly. It’s like Mark Wrote that one for the Everlys...

WHY WORRY (1986) The Everly Brothers, Mark Knopfler, Chet Atkins, Michael McDonald
LOL.....but she's a Maine Crab! The best possible kind!
Don't even get me started on the quality seafood she is exposed to, ;-}
I know...I love it too, Sis! :)
Reminds me of good times with wonderful friends! ((((hugs))))
A month later, Ted Billroth and Hans von Bülow died. The orchestra in Hamburg, which had denied him the music directorship for decades, finally made him an offer, but Brahms felt it was too late. That door had closed.
Jo spent the summer at Bad Ischl again, and he wrote two of the great treasures of the clarinet repertory.
The first movement of the first sonata is stormy with quite a bit of anger, although the second subject is wonderfully relaxed. The coda is magical.
The storm passes. The second movement in A-flat Major is one of Brahms’ most contemplative. The clarinet takes the melody at the beginning, passes it to the piano and takes it back at the end.
The third movement is a delightful ländler in A-flat, a slow waltz in the Viennese tradition.
The finale in F Major is a romp with the clarinet and piano taking on the role of a trumpet.
This live performance from Spain is exceptional.
Love, thank you for introducing me to Michael Martin Murphy’s Wildfire. I love it!
