Anybody Like Classical Music?
- Thread starter BohemianArtist
- Start date
The violin nerds are going back on tour and they are bringing gorgeous Sophie Druml with them. I still think she'd kill touring solo, she's too modest.
Everything in my classical collection is done by cover or tribute bands. Sadly, I have nothing that's original.
No song is better at inspiring crowds.
Folk songs like Danny Boy are as inspiring but they are cultural, Pomp and Circumstance is universal
Pomp and Circumstance is a series of five marches for orchestra composed by Sir Edward Elgar. The first march, in D major, is the most famous of the series and is often played at graduation ceremonies . The title Pomp and Circumstance comes from a phrase in Shakespeare's Othello that refers to triumph in battle.

A treasured item in my musical collection, Schubert liked to take his time. He was more interested in atmosphere than virtuosity.
Every once in awhile i'll get a recommendation from Dave Hurwitz that hits instantly.
I love it; never would have thought. But it helps me focus when I'm studying; it creates the perfect atmosphere for a great study session. It also has a calming effect when I'm feeling anxious and soothes my anxiety by keeping me grounded and staying present. My Classical Bangerz playlist is just that-- bangerz

I like old school recorded classical music.
LP's - RCA with their Red Seal, and London/Decca with their ffrr line of LP's.
Angel, Deutch Grammofon as well.
ffrr is nice because they were often just a two mic affair hung in the mddle of the studio and a lot of them are small groups recorded in a single take,
And if the muscians were not photogenic, who cares.
Hearing it on a good old stereo driving full range speakers does it for me way more over ear buds with Youtube as a source.

I wonder if I could learn to play that piece even though i cannot play? Why not?
Learn the right hand by itself then the left hand by itself then combine them ???????
Any need to learn years of music theory first ?

If you know how to read music notation you're ahead of the game.
Gorgeous Sophie Druml plays Chopin's slow burn Polonaise-Fantaisie.
TwoSetViolin will be back in Toronto on Nov 5th. As a Patronato of the Arts, I get ticket options for incoming concerts. I'll probably get to meet Eddy and Brett, I'll resist the urge to give Sophie a big sloppy kiss.
F murray Abraham as Salieri
great acting but it is a lie that Salieri hated Mozart
The music Salieri hears in his head:
Concerto for Flute and Harp,
Symphony No. 29 in A,
Concerto for Two Pianos,
Symphonie Concertante,
Mass in C Minor
