Astounding, indeed. Perhaps next time he should try a trapeze act. Anyway, at this year's Schleswig-Holstein Music Festival Sumino will receive the Leonard Bernstein Award.
absolutely wonderful. there are so many health benefits to listening to classical music. I usually have it playing in the background while I'm working, and even when I'm not. some songs transport me back to when I first heard them, such as specific movie soundtracks. for example, Sergei Rachmaninoff's Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini used in Somewhere in Time. One of my all-time favorite movies.
do not think badly of me, but when I am writing for myself (working on a new novel) it helps me to have a random zombie movie playing on TV. classical music with the day job seems to help (a tiny bit) with the work stress. but to be honest, there is little lately that helps with the work stress. It is hard to explain how challenging it is to work at the most hated health insurance company in the country right now.
ah yes, I suppose I will now have to pull up some of his campaign speeches, tho the resulting nausea may prevent me from actually being able to do any writing.
Astounding.

I still can't listen to music. Ravel's Bolero was my mother's favourite piece of music. We played it at her funeral.
ReplyDeleteI'm pretty sure that this problem can be solved in no time at all by a nice person in your neighbourhood ;-)

ReplyDeleteYep, this very Rhapsody has something.
DeleteIn former years I sometimes enjoyed background music whilst writing. Perhaps I shall try again, one day.
In former years when writing I, too, used to have background music. Perhaps I should give it a chance again, now and then.

DeleteWhen I look across the pond, I don't need zombie or horror films.

DeleteAquesta música sempre m'emociona i em produeix una certa tensió, tot a la vegada...
