Classical Music

Salamat sa links.

 

I'd like to share this youtube link that just shows how a simple piece when interpreted by a master becomes a masterpiece. Sa mga nag aral ng music this is a level 1 voice piece. It is given to all freshmen pero I've never heard it sung this well.

 

performed by montserrat caballe, Caro Mio Ben by Giordani

For a demonstration of exquisite control and sublime restraint here is maestro Pavarotti in an early recital:

salamat. I really enjoyed maestro pavarotti's rendition. Ngayon ko lang napanood ito but I prefer the female timbre for this piece (cguro dahil frustrated soprano ako hahaha) We lost such a great tenor.

I like listening to 1812 Overture by Peter Ilich Tschaikovsky, New World Symphony by Antonin Dvorak, Scheherazade by Rimsky-Korsakoff, Fiddler on the Roof, William Tell Overture etc.

 

I also dig in modern classical composers such as John Williams and Bill Conti. :thumbsupsmiley:

[purrtypwincess]

Claude Debussy's Claire De Lune is by the far the best classical music composition for me. (And not because it was played at the Twilight movie. Haha)

 

Super relaxing and would definitely give you peace of mind.

May I recommend American mezzo-soprano Jennifer Larmore. She's an ageless beauty with an equally fabulous voice. Here's a video of Ombra Mai Fu (from Handel's Xerxes):

And she speaks fluent French to boot. That's so sexy!

I once heard this live in a wedding and asked the organist kung ano ito. it is one of my favorite recessionals now

Every time I hear good classical guitar or cello, I stop dead on my tracks to listen.

 

Listen to "Cavatina" on YouTube (the beautiful theme from Deer Hunter) and try not to smile:

May I introduce you to Alice Sara Ott.

 

 

She was a child prodigy and her future potential is, to say the least, still enormous. Watch and listen to her play the Franz Liszt etude 'La Campanella' on YouTube:

Anna Netrebko is hawt!

Tchaikovsky's Swan Lake Ballet. This piece was sampled by the legendary hip-hop producer and rapper Rza of Wu-Tang Clan, in the song Black Star Lineup.

 

Now I don't know if this belongs to classical music, (some would classify it as New Age or esoteric music) but I definitely love the works of Thomas de Hartmann and the Russian mystic George Ivanovitch Gurdjieff.

I'd like to thank the group of violin students practicing at the top floor of Robinson's near Tandang Sora for giving me some needed relaxation. You gave me peace of mind for that afternoon listening to old Romanian dances.
