Oldiesmann: Finally got the AmazonBot situation under control. I basically changed some server settings to tell AmazonBot that it's not allowed to access anything on the site. That should fix the speed issues we've been experiencing lately

Don. Will try to be home tomorrow to listen. Have 5 of my favourite pieces on that list.

Now I know that Junee in Australia would love to be able to hear you. For her would be about 17 hours difference. That is ahead of the US Eastern time. If Bubble can get it looks like she could.
She listens to one in UK on a Sunday that I wish I could get. It is a video also coming out of the Churches on a Sunday morning. Wonder if it can be gotten in Canada. Will have to ask Junee the Station and the UK time.

There are bribes for me to be there.  Aside from some unknowns, there's the Bach, plus Don carefully didn't say what Shostakovich movie music, and he knows I'm a sucker for it.

MarsGal

Here is a list of Shostakovich music used in movies.  http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0006291/

Gloria

BUBBLE  I sure intend to be here listening to Don today even if he did not have Chopin in the list.

I had no idea that so much of Shostakovich's non-theatrical music--symphonies, quartets, piano music, etc--had been used in movies.  Less surprising is the use of things like the Jazz Suites and the Gadfly.

Gloria

My son just left so now I am ready for the best 3 hours of music online. I am ready to just sit back and enjoy.

Here a little early. Going to settle in and do some reading.

Hi MarsGal, JeanneP, Gloria, PatH. I am blown away by that list of soundtrack music by Shostakovic. Thanks for posting.
Bubble is babysitting and may be a bit late.

so_P_bubble

Here I am... feeding my little one :)

I gave hin a hair cut and a shower before that and now he is in his pajamas.

Gloria

DON  good one to start the program with.

JEANNE P  I always copy Don't list and check it out. That way I check all that he will be playing. Always new composers names for me but a lot of favorites, too.

BUBBLE  glad you made it on time.

Oh Aviv is so happy with this circus music!  He went to tell Mahi to dance to it!!! :)

Radioman34

Well the timing was certainly right for that one, wasn't it? And it wasn't even scheduled

JeanneP

Bubble. I hope you didn't cut his curls off.  Ours wanted his gone the other day now I have to wait for them to come back.  We have to stop calling them "Little Ones Soon" getting so big.Aviv and mine.(the twin) the same age.
JeanneP

JeanneP

I am here. Caught it at the start this week.  It starts at Noon Here.  I usually copy the list so that I don't step out of the room on a favourite.

Bubble.  There Don goes with that fantastic voice again. I never must have noticed it before.
JeanneP

so_P_bubble

Jeanne, no curls left :) but they grow back so fast...
When he saw himself in the mirror he said: they will think there is a new child tomorrow when I go to kindergarten.

so_P_bubble

Sarasate is delightful.  I just wish Aviv could stay quiet for more than 3 seconds!!! :-\

so_P_bubble

The start of Little Suite reminded me of my piano lessons/exercises of long ago!

Gloria

DON  been enjoying the afternoon but the last was the hi-light for me. Always enjoy Chopin.

Gloria I always like to hear from my satisfied customers :D

MarsGal

The Organ Symphony is almost always in my first five CDs in my player carousel)

PatH2

Have you ever heard it live, MarsGal?  You can feel it in the seat of your chair.

so_P_bubble

ohhh  Italian Capriccio disappeared suddenly?... Have to refresh!

Radioman34


PatH2

Yes, I'm ready.

We used to have the words and music to one of the Italian folk songs in the Capriccio, and I always hear them in my mind when listening.  Unfortunately, there are big gaps where I've forgotten.

so_P_bubble

Well, Aviv finally went home: 10.30 pm and he was showing no sign of wanting to sleep or to slow his talking.  Phewwww...

Pat, any names of those songs? I am curious...

Movie Soundtrack is very evocative.
But I think that will be my last for tonight and I will say bye and layla tov to all of you. I never liked much Royal Fireworks anyway.

Thanks for some enjoyable selections.

Don,
Sometime play Espana Rhapsody by Emmanuel Charbrier?  I heard it for the first time today while I was in my car, and it is delightful!

Gloria

Lost the sound again.  Someone doesn't know they should not do that to those of us who enjoy these short 3 hours,
