right now some exceptionally bad neo-classic music on the conference call line while I wait for a meeting to start...my ears are bleeding!, I think I will have to charge them extra for this.
Last night actually, the 1808 Beethoven concert at Hamer Hall with the MSO conducted by Diego Matheuz.
Symphony No.6 Pastoral, Ah! perfido, Mass in C: Gloria.
Piano Concerto No.4, Symphony No.5.
Mass in C: Sanctus and Benedictus, Fantasia for Piano, Choral Fantasy
Perfect seats in the Circle, watching the violin bows all in unison, like bayonets stabbing the air, the warm wood tones of the strings, the flashes of gold as the brass raised their instruments, the rippling waves of white pages across the chorus as they changed sheets, and the occasional waft of expensive perfume from among the audience.
One of my all time favourites. Also my avatar on the other forum.
Frighteningly, I watched a documentary on the guitar riff, last Friday and they were talking to Robert Fripp - he had short grey hair (what was left of it) and a three piece suit 😲
