For me a love of classical music is only partially a natural response to hearing the works performed, it also must come about by a decision to listen carefully, to pay close attention, a decision inevitably motivated by the cultural and social prestige of the art i just love it

My art teacher used to play classical music all day long in our painting classes; a lot of Bach as I recall, but one day, he played something that really got to me and I am not sure of the name of it. Is there something called Antarctica or the Antarctic suite? Forgive my ignorance...

Yeh ! right antarctic is something music on the ice the real collection of the objects from the sea you will indulge with this theme combination classic plus antartic.

been listening to a few of Bernstein's and Gershwin's orchestral suites lately
not bad, though i wish they inserted more jazzy flourishes, instead of the odd bit here and there |

I don't know if it's a sign of all the chaos that is happening out there or not, but I've lately craved the structure and order of classical music, the balance and symmetry.

OK, the Lone Ranger :) .... I guess that gives away my age.
It took me a while to start appreciating classical music - partly because I was dragged kicking and screaming (well almost!) to music lessons. But there was always music of some kind on television and also at school, so I suppose I just gradually fell in love with some classical music without realising it. thank goodness :) Margaret |
'Tabula Rasa' by Arvö Part was the work that got me into classical, and it's still one of my favourite works.
