There is a good "Scat" verse in this: Music transcends race and age and sex and gender. Music transcends. The last official act of any government is to loot the treasury. GW |

My wife can't dance and looks horrid if she even tries. Works for me, thank god she hates dancing as much as I do. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

I like classical music and opera. I like Sinatra at times, but I never get tired of classical. Right now I'm listening to 'A Beethoven Piano Weekend' on Pandora..  If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

| petroglyph Member since: Aug 3, 2014 Threads: 25 Posts: 6227 | Another thing I like about music versus tv, I can accomplish other things with music playing. Video sucks my head in that direction like a magnet and I end up sitting and not doing anything but watching. The last official act of any government is to loot the treasury. GW |

| beachbumbabs Member since: Sep 3, 2013 Threads: 6 Posts: 1600 | I'm kind of a lightweight classical lover. Haydn, Handel, Vivaldi, Mozart, Debussy, Copeland, Chopin, Beethovens odd numbered symphonies, a few of the Bach concertos, some Tchaikovsky, all good ear candy. Most Bach, Brahms, Dvorak, Wagner, some Beethoven, Saint-Saens, Wagner, most opera, did I mention Wagner....meh to bleah. I suspect it's my Looney Tunes upbringing.

Dont know that I've heard that piece before. That first movement is very technically challenging. Almost percussive. And so fast. It almost hurt my ears on the passages where she was alternating right and left chords so fast - kind of a pressure change happening there. The 2nd and 3rd seemed more typically Beethoven. Smoother and more melodic. Curious why you posted it among all to choose from. Thanks. Never doubt a small group of concerned citizens can change the world; it's the only thing ever has |
