The Good Stuff



There are simply two kinds of music, good music and the other kind ... the only yardstick by which the result should be judged is simply that of how it sounds. If it sounds good it's successful; if it doesn't it has failed. --  Duke Ellington

This purpose of this thread is to provide a place to post outstanding examples of the Good Music.

My CD has a different cover art, but it is the same album.

I like Bach.  Have a lot of music on CD by him.  But I must confess, I never think about God while listening to his music.  From the wrong church I guess.  I only think of God when listening to Messiah.

That is normal for those who don’t have German .

Every piece he wrote had written said " Glory to God" or the like,

No German how would you know ?

Nearly all that that that was sung was about Jesus .

One piece that the above was written by Matin Luther, got to me .!

 

You can buy English paper on almost all Bach . Handel is great, Bach is the

Ultimate .
