That's good. What's in it?


To mention only the 100% new stuff (I have more old or unfinished material too)

Bach's Chromatic Fantasy and Fugue
Three of Rachmaninoff's Etudes-Tableu
Bartok's Romanian Traditional Dances
Bartok's A Gyermekeknek
Bartok's Sonata

Beethoven's Fifth Piano Concerto
Liszt's First Piano Concerto
Bartok's Third Piano Concerto

(I've never done three concertos in my life, let alone receive three in a row. Shocked Gleeeeeeeee!)

Bartok and Rachmaninoff are two of my favorite classical composers. My favorite is still Dvorak.

I had to choose, as a modern study, between Rachmaninoff and Scriabin. I was surprisingly underwhelmed by Scriabin.

I'm torn between Dvorak. He wrote one of the best symphonies ever, he wrote one of my favourite Piano Quintets, but he didn't write me a Piano Concerto. ErmmTongue

I don't work with favourites. When Chopin sounds masterliness when you're a child, then Schubert sounds masterliness when you're 13, then Debussy sounds beyond masterliness when you're 16, and now finally Brahms sounds masterliness too (along Mahler and Bruckner, in the symphonic department), you can quit this smoking habit called "having favourites".

I have really gotten into Brahms lately. It started with the song in There Will Be Blood, and the fourth symphony and piano quintet are unbelievable.

Are any of you guys familiar with The Marcus Strickland Trio?  http://www.marcusstrickland.com/  He'll be playing a concert up in Traverse City while I am there on vacation and I am thinking of attending, however, I am not familiar with him.

That's the third part of the Violin Concerto, with Anne-Sophie Mutter and Karajan.

Or at least I hate calling it a song. LOL

Yes, Brahms has thousand ways of telling you he was an incredible composer. His variations are pinnacles of the genre and superb. As a pianist, I'm only having a harder time with his Sonatas.

The University Orchestra tried to play the First Symphony a month ago, they  totally dismantled it.

Yeah, I know I shouldn't call it a song, but I couldn't remember what it was and I was too lazy to look it up.

There you have it then. Great end credits "song" (as if the end itself didn't leave me with my mouth wide open).

Breadfan - One of the greatest metal riffs ever.  And I might not have otherwise heard it if Metallica hadn't covered it on Garage Days.

Great avatar, ScottClap! I'm sure my hubby will agree wholeheartedly.

Guys, the training session today went very well, and I think I will definitely get that job - though I don't know the details yet. I'll keep you posted!

I realize how bored I am with ELP in light of all the prog I have accumulated over the years.  Sleepy

Still love Tarkus and Karn Evil 9 though.

When I first heard it I said "Man, how did Thom Yorke write such a good piece?", lol.

I don't listen to ELP all that often any more, but I really don't get all of the hate that they get on here.  Different strokes for different folks and all that jazz.

Thanks. I was think of doing a poll with 5 or 10 possible new avatars, but decided to stick with the sports.  I miss the Stanley Cup though.
 
Great news that the training session went well.  Best wishes on getting the job.
