I don't give much for Andre Rieu's showmanship; but in this piece, he stays very much in the background and leaves the stage to a 13-year old girl. And does she ever deserve to be on centre stage! -------------------- I trade daily, but I am not a licensed adviser. Whether you find my ideas reasonable or not: The only person responsible for your actions is YOU.
I follow two rules: (1) There are no sacred truths. All assumptions must be critically examined. Arguments from authority are worthless. (2) Whatever is inconsistent with observed facts must be discarded or revised. We must understand the Market as it is and not confuse how it is with how we wish it to be. (inspired by Carl Sagan) |

In Reply To: Commander C's post @ Oct 2 2011, 08:14 PM One of the best selling classical music recordings of all time and certainly the most successful recording of a new composition in the history of the classical record business - Henryk Górecki - Symphony Nº3 (Symphony of Sorrowful Songs) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZVITZUQ_uIU A solo soprano sings a different Polish text in each of the three movements. The first is a 15th-century Polish lament of Mary, mother of Jesus, the second a message written by a 18 year old girl on the wall of a gestapo prison during World War II, and the third a Silesian folk song of a mother searching for her son killed in the Silesian uprising. The first and third movements are written from the perspective of a parent who has lost a child, and the second movement from that of a child separated from a parent. |

In Reply To: alonso's post @ Aug 22 2011, 10:32 AM Core 'ngrato There are many versions of this classic written for Enrico Caruso by Salvatore Cardillo in 1911. I have chosen a 1961 version by Franco Corelli. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mRsSiHUOmoM And a 1930's version by Tino Rossi http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o65gT9LOREs Mal |

In Reply To: geoq's post @ Aug 21 2011, 09:07 PM Joaquín Rodrigo's moving Concierto de Aranjuez. Yes geoq, that is brilliant. Haven't listened to it for ages, got it somewhere, but funny thing is as soon as you mentioned it the opening bars came into my mind. Stirring is what I'd call it. -------------------- The only certainty is that nothing is certain (somebody must have said that), but I'm not even sure about that.
"The optimist proclaims that we live in the best of all possible worlds. The pessimist fears this is true" Have you done a simple task the same way for years only to suddenly one day stumble on a better way to do it and wonder why you didn't think of it in the first place? Habit must be one of the biggest roadblocks to human progress . . .along with stupidity. Now we know how the Romans felt in 410 AD. Ooops, politically incorrect . . .twice. |

In Reply To: nipper's post @ Aug 19 2011, 04:43 PM Joaquín Rodrigo's moving Concierto de Aranjuez. There are a number of versions on youtube. I have chosen one by Kaori Muraji - 村治佳織 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DUrLvfyCTy4 and another by Joaquín Rodrigo http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BHTIHvhn6bc Joaquín Rodrigo lost his sight at the age of three after contracting diptheria and wrote his compositions in braille. |

In Reply To: falko's post @ Aug 19 2011, 04:28 PM or Sonny Terry from Sonny Terry & Brownie McGee http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DsMW8t-8cVU definitely under the category of CLASSIC -------------------- "Cause they told me everybody's got to pay their dues
And I explained that I had overpaid them" - Rodriguez |
