Congratulations on your Nuptials Old Sarge & Bride of Old Sarge!

Your carriage awaits....

The banquet hall is prepared & let the feasting begin!

Word is that Ma baked this cake for you herself....

May thy life be long and happy,
Thy cares and sorrows few;
And the many friends around thee
Prove faithful, fond and true.
May your voyage through life be as happy and as free
As the dancing waves on the deep blue sea

I guess the style of your letter was not well received then.

Hey...that's what editorials are for...I understand the small town element however. A blessing & a curse right?:)

[Publius]

In 1936, the 63 year old Sergei Rachmaninov decided to try his hand at another symphony, something he hadn’t done in almost 30 years. Despite his issues with modern classical music, there is a hint of Prokofiev in this, as well as a taste of Gershwin. Parts of this would make great movie music.

This movement is in sonata format and is as clearly signposted as a symphony by Haydn or Beethoven. Catch that second subject! You just want to melt. The acrid dissonance in the development section sounds a lot like Prokofiev.

Rachmaninov: Symphony #3 in A minor, Op. 44, first movement (Ashkenazy conducting the Concertgebouw of Amsterdam)

A beautiful and brilliant slow movement. The middle section takes the place of a scherzo movement.

(second movement) (Ashkenazy)

Great finale!

(third movement) (Rachmaninov conducting the Philadelphia Orchestra via RCA Victor recording, 1939)
