What Are You Listening To?

[Wirrallass]

Well, I’ve given up trying to sleep tonight! Always anxious the night before a hospital diabetic review! My DSN is lovely but, it’s the hospital doctor as I’m never sure who I’ll get & some can REALLY make me feel small & belittled. I wish I could just see the DSN & her team that help me with the day to day management!

Anyway @wirralass since you posted Beethoven’s Moonlight Sonata a while ago I’d thought I’d post my preferred Fur Elise:-

I love this Lanny, thank you ~ my youngest grandson plays it on the piano for me (self taught I might add)

I love this newly discovered, by me, video of Maria Callas singing Carmen live in concert. I can SO see her on stage in full costume singing & acting this out! I have all of these on CD that I imported into iTunes but, it’s been a revelation to see this video on youtube!

Now you're talking Lanny

Thanks @wirralass!🙂

My younger sister, by 1.5 years, started learning to play the Moonlight Sonata via an app on her iPad & endless repititions made me a little sick of it. I’d always preferred Fur Elise anyway! She never had lessons either & it was one of those things she’d wanted to do! There’s all sorts of apps on iPad you can take up & learn with no prior experience: just have the desire & keep at it!

You know, I’ve been meaning for a while to thank you @Contused for starting this thread! It’s changed the way I listen to music! Now when I want to listen to something from my library, I look it up on youtube & most of the time; it’s there! Not always with a video footage, sometimes just a backdrop picture, but, sometimes I discover little gems like Maria Callas’ live in concert performance!😛

So, a BIG Thank You from me, @Contused!🙂😎

Interesting to see this! I’d only seen the Girls Aloud version from the film Love Actually.🙄 It makes more sense!🙂

For that matter, I’d never heard of the Pointers Sisters! Are they a 70’s group; guessing from the hair styles & dress?🙄

Yes, tho they formed about 1969 Lanny. There was another sister but she sadly passed away aged 52yrs I think. Here's a link:~
