Ballet and Slaughter?  What a combination!

Don. I am trying to clean house a little while listening but I sat when "Slaughter on 10th. Ave" came out.  Now it is a different version than the one I have. Changed a lot. wonder if yours is a newer.  Mine has to be over 40 years old I think It on a old vinyl. Most probably worn out by now. I still can play my vinyl and lots are still good.
Getting a cleaning done while listening. Music helps.
First part of you show kept going in and out for about 15 min. but O.K after.

JeanneP  that's a pretty old recording I played. The orchestra was conducted by Arthur Fiedler and he died nearly 40 years ago

A lovely afternoon. Thank you, Don.

Thank you all for tuning in. Back in two weeks

Layla Tov and thanks, Don!

Don. Goodness.  What a show comes on after you. I wondered what was coming over my computer. Some Psychology women talking.  REally deep.

DON  thanks for another wonderful afternoon.

Woops! got all primed up to listen to Don's program and then remembered,not on today.  Hope he is enjoying his day off.

Apparently the weather is wet and windy.  Many people will be disappointed if they were planning on an outing for the week end.  Don, stay home!

A youthful work by Mendelssohn is one of the highlights along with a family presentation from the Shostakovich clan. Dimitri junior, the composer's grandson performs on the piano, accompanied by the orchestra conducted by his son. We'll also hear Beethoven's trial run of his 9th symphony all while enjoying a cup of coffee compliments of JS Bach

Sounds like a very interesting program

Sounds like a good program. I will join you bubble.Have my Cup of Tea and Lunch at same time.

All set and ready to go. Things are not in good order here at the studio though; WeAre :off air" and I have got us running manually.

I am here.  I hope there won't be  any other problem...

Well, here is am almost late. Lucy found some plastic to chew on so I had to chase her off and rearrange things again. Cats! One likes to shred cardboard boxes and chew wiring and the other goes after plastic.


Hi, Bubble.

Hi MarsGal, Hi Bubble

wow  That is so fascinating! Spiegel Im Spiegel- have you seen the movie?  As enthralling as the music?

When I first learned the piano, I had a music volume titled "Clementi".  I suppose it was easy transcriptions of his compositions, but it is the one I liked least of what I had to practice.

I have seen the movie---twice actually. If you only see one movie for the rest of your life let it be this one.

I imagine most childhood pieces are unpleasant to whomever is practicing. I quite like his works.

I actually never heard of the movie, Wit, before (and no wonder, it was an HBO movie). The only time I hear the piece is right here. It appears the music was used in a number of films and TV shows, none of which I've seen except for the Trailer for Gravity. I guess it didn't make it into the full movie though.

Finally here. Had company and I do not have the PC or TV on when anyone is here. Now I hope I have nothing to interrupt the rest of the program.

Hi Gloria.
MarsGal I think the HBO connection is what many experts feel  is what prevented it from winning an Oscar

Interesting Don. I know a bunch connected with the Cannes Arts Festival wasn't happy when some of the made for HBO, NetFlix, etc. movies were submitted. Snobs!

Hi Gloria!

MARS GAL  hope you are enjoying this afternoon as much as I am.

DON  I heard some other songs that must have been taken for the Mississippi Suite. I enjoyed that one very much.

This concert is really most enjoy able.  I am swinging to the Polonaise

Always good to hear. It makes the time fly

Layla tov!
