Classical Music for Aficionados

Me too... i used to play it often... 😁

And for me too....😊

My deepest respects to you....

A note: i was speaking about the Bohm 1971 version....I like it much but second after  Hogwood....

I like this French  version of  the Mozart .

Very beautiful version but a mass of requiem and no more a drama and a spiritual theater...

It is like Bohm version a mass not an opera....I dont claim that it is not beautiful, it is....

But moving us nearer the abyss of fear and redemption at the same time, i only feel it with the Hogwood version....

By the way this work is like the art of the fugue, so much deep and beautiful, i collect all version and like them all....

But for the art of the fugue of Bach i like much the Neville Mariner version for example amongst them all ... Not because it is the better one, not at all, but because it make possible and more easier to listen to this everest of music one thousand time at least....

The variety of instruments used and the their limited numbers at the same time and the alternate parts with only harpsichord or organ is wonderful idea of Mariner...It make this abstract algebraic musical geometical feat lanscape a more human easy to grasp landscape...

I like this French version of the Mozart .

I always thought that a requiem was a mass ?

For reasons not known to me, the worst things get , the calmer I get .

Two times in Army I was thought dead in hospital , Not really , I was whatever

you call almost dead but you come back.

Both times I was not in fear because wherever I was, there was no fear .

I love Mozart of course , but the other genius , Schubert,, brought the feelings

to me that Mozart bought to you guys , Mozart is the greatest writer of music .

But Schubert is the greatest writer of humanly music .

A musician sees Mozart, the Lady in Church sings Ava Maria ,

Schubert makes you think of all things human.
