@audio-b-dog - and I believe that was when they returned to their ancestral home after wandering the desert for however long they wandered the desert for.
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.

To me the Bible is about everything that went wrong after the suppression of women. I've read a lot of history outside the Bible, which is not strictly history, to come to that conclusion. On the music front, It sounds like you're not a classical music guy. I'll try you on something else. This is a song written by Antonio Carlos Jobim, one of 20th century's greatest compsers, IMHO. Patricia Barber sings and also plays the piano. I think her jazz piano is excellent. |
I think we’ve gone far astray of music. If you lived close by I’d love to meet you in a coffee shop or whatever and discuss all of this. I feel bad, however, dominating this thread on music with philosophy. And I blame myself. I must not fall into the trap of talking about my overall beliefs again. I will keep my thoughts to music. I am posting Schubert’s Piano Sonata 960. It is one of his most beautiful and captivating sonatas. Schubert died at 31. He left an amazing legacy for so few years. |
If you get a chance, you might listen to Uchida playing Scuberts Impromptus, 899 is the most beautiful, but they're both beautiful. Uchida goes for nuance over power. I listened to Brendel playing them this morning because he died last month. He also goes for nuance. I'd post it on youtube but the only have her playing one movement at a time. Religion is filled with dogma, much of it I don't like. Spirituality has no dogma. It is simply a person getting in touch with their connection to the universe, or god, or goddess, or whatever word we want to put on it. In writing @mahgister I discovered the thought "I belong" or "we belong." I'll have to mull over which works better. I was listening to Monteverdi yesterday. I didn't like his madigrals from book 8 but I did like a long piece very much. I think it was something about the creation. |
