britten, the young person's guide to the orchestra subtitle variations and fugue on a theme of purcellit was written for an educational film, to show off the instruments of the orchestra but is a really neat peice because it does just that, even if your not a young person,recorded on this cd (virgin classics) by royal liverpool po...and a cup of java.....black and hot....got about 3" of snow overnight which is on the low end of the prediction...still snowing but very lightly....i guess that change is and always will be part of this process we call life, although i've always loved the classics i've never been one to embrace the work of the 20th century much perfering the baroque and classical period, but have recently become semi-addicted to some of the more approachable 20th century composers.....however have gotten into medieval chant and polyphony as well, so go figure
i've got a little nuts lately on adding bells and whistles to this rotting sewer that is my excuse for a blog, i think i'm going to call a freeze on that and just get back to why i was doing this in the first place, i mean i'd like to do that but quite frankly i can't remember why that was or what i was doing.......archives i'll check the archive.......eeeeeeeeeeeeeeck!..........i guess that wasn't a good idea...
