    Music from Mike's post and selections from operas.
    " The essance of reproduction,to feel and re-create that which was felt and impared by the creater,does not exclude- within natural limitations-the assertion of creative power" - Dr. Hugo Goldschmidt.

    I wish you the Best for each day, now and always.

    Bach's Toccata and fugue for organ arranged for full orchestra on BBC proms. Watching all the different instruments playing the really tricky passages was fascinating. Elderflower

    My most recent listens have been Robert Simpson Symphony No. 8, and Schubert Symphonies 1 & 4 from a collection I just acquired of the complete symphonies played by the "Orchestra of the 18th Century" conducted by Frans Bruggen.

    My latest 'find'

    I have been listening to a lot of Cipriano de Rore lately. What an amazing composer! Not so much his madrigals (which are more well-known) but his stunning sacred music. My CD contains gorgeous recordings by the Huelgas Ensemble - inspiring! I am going to get my choir Lumina to sing some very soon...

    I have also been enjoying hearing my daughter playing Bach on the cello - with musical expression! All those years of hard work all seem so worth while :-)
