Another relaxing nightcap🙂

I remember this concert: post the Italian World Cup; REALLY brought attention to Pavarotti to the mainstream pop audience!😛😎

I bought it on vhs & cd. Mind you, I can’t watch it anymore as I no longer have a working vcr!

These were the World’s foremost tenors in the world at the time & they were very funny, still repectful, with their interactions during this concert!🙂

I would have loved to be there live on a lovely summer evening in the the Ialtian open air!😎😛

Umm! I wonder if it’s on DVD?🙄 That brought back the memories!😛

Hi Nick. This is a shorter version of Goldberg Variations

WL

Awesome musical control!

TBH, it’s only recently with my sister learning to play the keyboard, via an iPad app, that I’ve changed my mind & appreciated piano music. I thought it was a boring instrument & nothing compared to the cello or violin.

Then, my sister impressed upon me how difficult it is to play two differnt sets of notes by the two hands at the same time! She had to learn each hand seperately, before playing them together. It’s worse than the patting head & rubbing tummy thing! The two hands can be slurred together & it takes some practice to have each hands’ notes distict & clear! It’s openned my eyes to appreciating the piano MUCH more!😳😎😛

Indeed very excellent control!😎

Last one from me tonight (Morning!) Sleep well everyone🙂

WL

Loved that!😛 Very sweetly played! It’s very popular in Austria & the little flower is very prevalent in the countryside around Saltzburg & the alps. Not so much in Vienna. I’ve been to both. Saltzburg, & surrounding countryside, is VERY fairytale!😛 Vienna is very Cosmopolitan & sophisticated! So, you can see why such a small, & humble, little bloom might be out of place in Vienna?🙄

 

[Lanny]

She has such a lovely voice!😛

She’s been quite controversial, & rebellious, in her time!😱 She was even an Irish Catholic female priest for a time!😱 She shaved all her hair off in protest of the exorbitant prices of a haircut in London when she filmed her infamous video for “Nothing Compares To U”, where she REALLY did cry as she had just broken up with her boybriend! Yes, a lovely voice & a “not afraid to be different” personality!😱😛😎

Another great piece by Andrew Rieu

WL

Loved that!😛

You know, the trumpet can provide amazing solace to the soul: not an intrument you normally associate with that trait!🙄 It also has a connection with the military, especially the army, so, maybe THAT has something to do with it?🙄

Yes! VERY soulful!😛

Here’s more jazz of the 1920’s from a tv series on the BBC Pennies Fron Heaven starring Bob Hoskins, I’m sorry I can’t remember the actreess that starred alongside him!

Pennies From Heaven

You couldn’t be cuter

The clouds will soon roll by

Seein' Is Believin'

Roll Along Prairie Moon


I bought the album on double cassette tapes, yeas ago, when it came out & haven’t got it in my iTunes library! So, it’s really nice to find it on youtube!

 

[Lanny]

Ah! Just googled it! The actress was Gemma Craven that starred alongside Bob Hoskins! Wow! That TV series aired in 1978, when I was only 6. But, I remembered it & bought the cassette album as a teenager in the 1980’s.

Then, hearing the soundtrack of Miss Fisher’s Murder Mysteries reminded me of this forgotten album, because it’s not in my iTunes library, & Denis Porter TV series!

Liking this.
