~LOL~ I love the Itzhak Perlman piece, of course it always reminds me of the movie True Lies......  

The tango is a very sexy dancy......

I like the Tango in "Scent of a Woman", with Al Pacino.

Ah Pacino, such a great actor!  He did such a marvelous job in this (and many other) movies. I have not seen Scent of a Woman in a long time, I see it comes on Encore from time-to-time, will have to make a point of watching it again./

The Nature of Genius: Beethoven and the Sonata Form

LOL!  In the first couple of moments the narrator talks about how much of a jerk Beethoven apparently was....as a creative artist.

He seems more real to me...with flaws.

Did you ever watch the movie on his life?  He was a jerk for certain, but then most highly artistic people are not easy to understand or to live with, they can put a whole new spin in tempermental.

A little different rendition and audio than Yundi Li's back on page 1 of this thread.

But better visual of keyboard.

I respect creativity in people and give them wide latitude when it comes to interacting socially.  Many are social misfits.

Reminds me of why I was so angry when that homosexual violinist from Rutgers jumped off the NYC bridge after his roommates filmed him having a tryst.

What a wonderful thread!  Thanks so much for starting this DCP.  My tensions are in the stratosphere, and this is just... heaven.  Here is one that, for me, is best listened to with the eyes closed.

I agree completely.  I have no doubt she is from very fine stock. 

If I have one regret, it is that we didn't try for a daughter.  Mrs. Lando copes with a testosterone rich home!

Hey, I'm back.  Here is a traditional piece that has reached my soul since I was a boy.


Greensleeves - best version

And, from another thread, you may know I enjoy Gregorian.  Please, please take a moment to listen to this.  The purity of the voices...

Are you kidding?  I was listening to your 1st selection of it....then I clicked on the Gregorian version and it blew me away!

It's what prompted my remarks.  Thanks so much for everything.

I saw Phantom both in LA and NYC, would see it again in a heartbeat.  I like to think Sarah Brightman was a muse to Andrew Lloyd Webber as IMHO he did some of his best work while married to her, and who wouldn't write for that amazing voice.  I have a CD of her work (Michael Crawford, too) as you know I love Lake Powell.  When you are up there amoung those amazing prehistoric canyons and the CD cranked up playing this music with it reverberating off the canyon walls it gives you goosebumps.

Gosh, The Phantom...  Thanks for that DC.  I have seen it twice in Chicago and Louisville, Milwaukee and Green Bay.  Louisville is a first-rate place for theater.

I too, saw it twice....in NYC and the Kennedy Center in DC.  It's been difficult for me to enjoy other musicals, since Phantom raised the bar quite a bit IMO.

Moonlight Sonata



Beautiful, Lando.

Had the windows open and was playing the selections from this thread.  My tinnitus warrants higher volume.

When I went outside, my neighbors next door thanked me and asked me "What CD were you playing?"
