I have another question: Would you prefer Mozart or Beethoven?
Aarkh!
Thanks for visiting my blog. I will answer your question, even if I'm not sure you're being sarcastic or not. :)
I love Mozart. Beethoven is too "grandiose" for me.
I was being sarcastic, but I like your blog and I like your questions.
Hahaha. I knew it. I know sarcasm when I read it. Or hear it. :)
I tried reading your blog but unfortunately I don't know Dutch. I recognized Nabokov, Bach, Handel, John Le Carre, Vivaldi. And, I think, Russian Literature?
Anyway, thanks for visiting again. Appreciate it.
:)
You said, Beethoven is too grandiose for me. You're absolutely right there. I abhor his concertoes. But he has some fine, little, simple piano works. And he has one piano concerto (the Emperor Concerto) that I like. You will find Glenn Gould playing the Emperor, on YouTube.
Thanks for the tidbit. Will look it up on YouTube. :)
Hi Chansonata,
You had a poem that began: ‘Somewhere between afterimage and stark reality' - a strong line. I began to think: what stark reality, in God’s name? But then I saw your good rhyme with 'dark' in the same stanza - I knew we had a poetess in our midst.
That's only my opinion, of course, but there you have it.
Do you like Bach's BWV 569?
I'm afraid my knowledge of classical music is very general and am not familiar with Bach's BWV 569. I like, though, his Cantata 147, his Brandenburg Concerto and Sheep May Safely Graze. I think his music is soothing and gives you that feeling of tranquility, like the world is a beautiful place, including its sadnesses.
Thanks for reading my poem. It was workshopped in one of my Poetry classes in college and my professor said it had a really strong start, but that it's still too abstract to really be comfortable with itself. I agree with her. Still have no idea how to revise it, though. In time, hopefully, I'd find something.
Your blog keeps getting better and better! Your older articles are not as good as newer ones you have a lot more creativity and originality now. Keep it up!
And according to this article, I totally agree with your opinion, but only this time! :)
