Hector, I just found this on NPR's World of Opera website & thought you might be interested (being Berlioz and sacred music - sounded right up your alley!)
Cheers! Alqua Quote:

I hope you enjoy your new CD's Hector.
I asked my dad which Mahler symphony's he likes, and he named the 1st among others. He said the reason the local symphony doesn't play it is because it calls for a very large orchestra. It's not feasable for our modest sized (but not puny) and talented orchestra.

thanks nirv! we need to talk on msn if you dont mind(well we dont need to, but it'd be nice, eh?)
out of all Mahler's symphonies that i've, i think his sixth is the best. he supposedly wrote it for his wife. hey, i really started liking his first quite a bit now! the second movement is so nice....

I've heard people refer to the Missa Solemnis as Beethoven's 10th. Is that what you mean?

I just went to a great jazz concert called "Jazzy Nutcracker", by the Toronto Septet. It was awesome. The feature, a jazzed up Nutcracker, was so good, you would have thought Tcaicovsky wrote it for 4 saxaphones, jazz piano, drums, and upright bass. They also did Ravell. I think the two composers would have enjoyed the concert!

Have you ever heard jazz oboe? Or jazz alto flute?
My brother and dad are into jazz, and my mom and I are really getting into it. I'm also starting to like modern saxaphone music, because one of my friends from university is majoring in it. Jazz is so versatile and natural. I really enjoy its relaxed, spontaneous nature.

well, hector berlioz was good friends with adolphe saxe, who invented the saxaphone.
berlioz was also the first one to use saxaphone in his compositions.

I have heard Eric Dolphy playing bass clarinet. It was awesome. It was at a friend's house. I didn't buy that album, though, mostly because my wishlist is so big and it has never been placed at the top of it. Haven't heard anyone play oboe in jazz, yet.
I bet if you started a thread called simply "Jazz" it could get as big as this one in time.

Thanks Elfhelm, I started the new thread, and I'll stop leading everyone off topic in this thread.
