Re: Amazing 13 Year Old Alma Deutscher
Alma has written concertos for piano and violin, as well as works for symphony orchestra and now two operas. Her ability to imagine melodies is innate, and connected to her impressive skills in improvisation. She has a sense of wonder and curiosity about music that suits her age, but she is mature in her focus on her craft. Her industriousness comes out of a simple love for the work, and she even seems capable of enjoying her unique life, and she always wants to be a composer.

Re: Ravi Shankar has died.
Ravi Shankar who died on December 11, 2012 at the age of 92, is still a powerful and lasting influence on music. he granted international audiences access to a millenia-old Indian musical tradition. He brought Eastern elements-both tonal and rhythmic-into Western music. May he be at peace. Love, Inda

Re: Dedication by Cyril Scott
From: Dreams After Death: The Awakening. A moment of years-the spell of a magic moment raise The mask of mourning from the soul; While yet beneath the frame-destroying furnace blazes, The god within has sought his golden goal. A soft caressing, born of thousand-scented breezes, A mingling music murmuring bliss, A blending and a sigh which every pain appeases, And thus the soul inhales the awak'ning kiss. A calmness reigns-in all the sounds a silence lingers, A silence which alone is joy. And...

Re: Dreams After Death
One hour of earth caressed by heaven's fragrance, Long faded from the earthly memory now, When soul encircled soul among the smiling roses, As vesper sunbeams bathed your virgin brow. One hour which reached the crest of every rapture, In which Life's sea had wearied of every storm, When breathed the very essence of your virgin passion, From out the halo of your hallowed form. All words were mute-the soul had met the spirit, I pressed no kiss but wrapt my life in yours, And soul with soul we...

Re: Dreams After Death
My dream is of a realm of passing Peace. An early autumn day is swooning slowly, The blue is veiled by violet-tinted fleece, And from the earth an incense rises slowly, And all the sounds of Nature's singing cease. Upon a cone-like hill- begirt by woods Of mystic furs that rise in stately splendour, And in the breezes sway their sombre hoods- A chapel rests; its form both grand and tender Stands out against the gold above the woods. For just beyond the hill the cloudy screen Is rent, and...

Re: Beautiful Colors of Autumn
Have you ever noticed a tree standing naked against the sky, How beautiful it is? All its branches are outlined, and in its nakedness There is a poem, there is a song. Every leaf is gone and it is waiting for the spring. When the spring comes, it again fills the tree with The music of many leaves, Which in due season fall and are blown away. And this is the way of life. - Krishnamurti

There the sky is filled with music: There it rains nectar: There the harp-strings jingle, and there the drums beat. What a secret splendour is there, in the mansion of the sky! There no mention is made of the rising and the setting of the sun; In the ocean of manifestation, which is the light of love, day and night are felt to be one. Joy for ever , no sorrow, no struggle! There have I seen joy filled to the brim, perfection of joy; No place for error is there. Kabir

Re: Enjoy a preview of 8 classical music channels I'm sharing
Hi Teo. I like both the straightly rendered stuff and the pieces you have "jazzed up." I think they both have their appropriate place in the archive. If one does happen to have the ability to mess around with midi, these are all great source tracks. Who knows where this work might show up either as is, or transformed? As you know, I'm with you on the notion that midi which can be written in real time by playing into a sequencer is a performance medium and that one ought to be able to claim...

I told her it had to be a mockingbird. I think at this time of the year they try to be mistaken for nightingales and almost succeed except when they change their tune.

In the CopyRight tag I put the artists full name, opus number of the song, and sometimes who the song was written to or something halfways pertinent.

It's still a good dance, even if the Tennessee Waltz, like Waltzing Matilda is a Fox Trot. It's fine as no one's feet get stepped on. Thanks for the joy of music!
