Let's talk music, no genre boundaries
This is an offshoot of the jazz thread. I and others found that we could not talk about jazz without discussing other musical genres, as well as the philosophy of music. So, this is a thread in which people can suggest good music of all genres, and spout off your feelings about music itself.

Delighted to see people talking about Kiri Te Kanawa. I love her voice. Every voice is totally unique ... the timbre of hers is wonderful. Her interpretation of Richard Strauss' 4 final songs is easily the best of the dozens I've heard (probably own more than dozen, between LP and CD): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lzrbd6uuunA&list=PL0iOugSvrIBy65Uho2Kl7gT-JwcHyQCf1&index=1 |
@audio-b-dog, you are so right about Bach's Mass in B Minor. It's magnificent music. So much of what the man composed is magnificent. Are you hip to Haydn's "The Creation"? I love that oratorio. The man was playing his A game when he wrote that. I have four or five versions, but one stands far above the others. |
