    NP: Hamlet Fantasy Overture TCHAIKOVSKY This work was included on the third lp I ever purchased. It is a good reading of what Tchaikovsky felt about Hamlet. This new version has a quicker pace which I like.

    William my first encounter with Mahler was his first. Bernstein conducted the N.Y. Philharmonic. The Blumine wasn't included. I recently picked up a 16CD set of his works. It was released by EMI and I got it for under $30.

    The Penguin Guide which is 1200+ pages has nothing by this composer. I couldn't believe it.

    Hehe, haven't heard it before, Thor? It's not as obscure as you might think. It's one of the strangest internet memes that got big; some anime girl spinning a leek around (yes, you heard right): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1wnE4vF9CQ4

    Later a techno version was made: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_mdMb6bRXt4

    Then the original performances got big,

    And a live techno version: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0i8VM_EooCs

    And then an official music video inspired by a Saturday night live sketch: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NgrGRcjyzVw

    It's truly insane, and admittedly very catchy.

    I would love to hear John Williams take on RVW's symphonies, JW has a real affinity for his music.


    ....on the other hand I'd rather he DIDN'T give up the day job. wink

    NP: MUSIC FOR CELLO AND PIANO (Sergei Prokofiev/David Ward-Steinman)

    The only recording John Williams ever made as a classical pianist, with Edgar Lustgarten on cello, ca. mid 70's. The music is quite challenging at times, but it's a wonderful performance and testament to Williams' piano skills.
    I am extremely serious.

    Me too. beer

    I'm not usually into songs, but when voices are used more like instruments as in this piece I often find that it works really well.

    No worries. A bit too weird is it? Perhaps you just need to play it a little, as it's the kind of piece that gets ingrained in your mind after a while.

    Oh, and btw, am I the only one who think that the lead singer is one of the most beautiful and sexy women on the planet? There's something about her that just appeals to me.

    Very cool indeed! Has a little bit of Moroder in it, I think.

    I have always wanted to check out Soft Machine more properly.

    NP: FREUDIANA (Eric Woolfson)

    Practically an Alan Parsons Project album, this musical nonetheless bears Woolfson's distinct melodies. Grandiose, melancholic, beautiful.
