What Are You Listening To?

Just heard this on Classic FM & find the guitar with a full orchestra combination works very well! Joaquin Rodrigo Concierto de Aranjuez.


Oh! PS: if the second movement sounds familiar it’s because it was played by the Brass Band in the film Brassed Off! But, that was an interpretation, as it were for a Brass Band, & this is how it should be played!

You know, I’m in two minds, & not sure, about these type of group performances in public places, the term escapes me at this time in the morning!

I’m not sure I would say it’s a nuisance exactly but, if I was rushing to catch a train, train stations seem to be favourite spots for these impromptu performances, I wouldn’t want these mass groups getting in my way or cause me to be late in any way!

Edited to add:-* Oh, just remembered; Flash Mob is the term!

I don't usually like classical music but the beautiful scenery therein made it more tolerable to my ears!

I posted this before, with a different video, after first seeing the latest Kenneth Brannagh film version of Murder On The Orient Express & said that video, with Audrey Tatou, didn’t really fit with what the song is about!

I’ve just found this one with clips from the film that’s fits in better! But, I should warn you of spoilers if you plan on watching this film & have yet to do so!

I DO now recommend it, after repeated watching since I bought the film on iTunes & it’s in my library now, that the cast of this film were absolutely brillant! The annoyingly bad Poirot as portrayed by Brannagh I can gloss over now but, I’ve been spoilt by the excellent portrayal of Poirot by David Suchet on TV over 25 years! In no other version on film or TV has the tragedy been brought home than in this film version! The epitome of which is expressed in this song.

Never Forget Michelle Pfieffer.
