I heard a single movement from Lenny's second symphony. I accidentally found it.

Did you like it? Accidentally? I understand "dentally", but acci?

Somethin' hit ya in the teeth, TB?

Just think, if this was music you wanted to buy...and it is by Bax, So I may one day..., can you imagine how embarassing it is to purchase this?

"Erotica" Symphony, harharhar

LOL!
You haven't seen the cover to my long lost copy of the Carmina Burana yet. I think I still have the case.

EDIT: LOL! Track 6: "In a Vodka Shop" Reminds me of a certain personality test...

Delibes Lakme - The Flower Duet

A most beautiful piece.

I have so many composers-to-get on my list, it's not even funny. Delibes has been on there, because I love the story of Lakme

, and his ballets are supposed to be really good too.

Yeah, I know Carmina Burana has had some pretty racy covers...

Did you ever try putting "Vodka" for all the answers?

Ludwig van Beef-oven. :rolleyes*
Of course!

I spent a good hour on that test.

I think I've been Stravinsky and Prokofiev for so long...I never seem to be able to get anyone else!

Well, I think MOST of the Russian composers were cool. Actually they all were. It's just the reality of russia

*thinks that not enough trouble has been stirred up*
Yes!

Well, if you need actual evidence to the contrary, try Prokofiev's 1st and 3rd Piano Concertos. And then try the Stravinsky Violin Concerto (a big step away from the Violin Concertos written before him).

trolls' bane · 11-16-2006, 10:54 PM

Err...Maybe later... *didn't expect there to be any work involved in his troublemaking*

hectorberlioz · 11-20-2006, 07:12 PM

Troublemakers usually only stick to the easy stuff

Anyways: I am now convinced. After a frustrating relationship with Mahler's Seventh, I have now come to realize it for what it is: a masterpiece.
Not sure whether it was because of the Bernstein performance, but that symphony definitely makes you think of the Sixties...

Bruckner's Ninth! Genius stuff, and I can't stop listening to the second movement.

It's like Esa-Pekka Salonen's comment on the Berlin Philharmonic and its chorus:
"I always thought that you could just conduct a chorus like an orchestra, and it would do what it was supposed to. Then I conducted a regular chorus..."

Err...no.

Althought there was this one great symphony I heard on the radio. I don't know what it was, but he wrote it. I had the Opus number here somewhere...

Hmmm...out of the four that are designated symphonies, how hard could it be to remember the name of it? The Symphonie Funebre et Triomphale maybe?

That's a great piece.

Buxtehude Organ Music that Mercutio needs to know:

Toccata in F/buxWV157
Ciacona in E/buxWV150
Ick dank dir, lieben Herr/buxWV194
Fugue in C/buxWV147
