A Winter Evening's Tale (2012 Song) by L. Minstrel
A Winter Evening's Tale (2012 Song) by L. Minstrel Click here: Includes eerie classical paintings depicting pilgrim's progress, Book of revelations, crusades and other haunting biblical stories; it also includes a Pieter Brueghl. I was first inspired writing this song when I was reading about the crusades. That gave me the main message: We fight and ready to die on what we believe in, but we don't know how clueless and defenseless we are before truth and other greater forces both evil and good. So It's not a literal End Time song but an allegory of human life: the sum of all our fears, sins, follies, idiosyncrasies. Disclaimers: this is just a rough first raw take, a preview. There are some mistakes. And also the song is epic folk, meaning it is kinda very long. The perfect studio version would be released soon. I'm deeply grateful for Leonard Cohen and Bob Dylan, my two great musical fathers who taught me modern and classical poetry; who taught me to put different shades of meaning behind every word; who can appeal to both pop and counterculture and who both cares for the audience and break their expectations as well. A Winter's Evening's Tale (Live Raw Take Version) (Words and Music by Conrad Garcia aka Lonesome Minstrel Copyrighted 2009) On the dead end street the bearded lady makes her rounds, She's got ancient prophecies on the tip of her tongue, While she tells St. John her own sacred and twisted idea of fun, Little does she know that he's got the end lodged inside his own guts. There's no more difference between a ...
Gavota (Manuel M. Ponce)
Gavota (Manuel M. Ponce) Una pieza clásica de vez en cuando para recordar... Esta preciosa Gavota, perteneciente a la Suite Antigua, fue escrita por Ponce en 1931 cuando la música barroca estaba de moda. Al parecer Ponce fue el autor, pero la publicación original se atribuyó erróneamente a Alessandro Scarlatti. La composición de Ponce es tan perfecta y tan barroca que hoy sigue habiendo controversia respecto a la verdadera autoría de la obra. Ponce era sencillamente un genio. --------------------------------------- A classical piece from time to time to remember... This beautiful Gavotte, included in the Suite Antigua, was composed by Ponce in 1931 when the baroque music was trendy. It seems Ponce was the author in fact, but the original edition was wrongly attributed to Alessandro Scarlatti. Ponce's composition was so perfect and so baroque than even at present the controversy regarding the truth copyright goes on. Ponce was simply a genius.
Mozart String Quartet 21 in D major Prussian#1 k. 575 (1/4)
Mozart String Quartet 21 in D major Prussian#1 k. 575 (1/4) Quatuor Mosaiques Period Instruments In the spring of 1789, Mozart, in financial straits and desperately in need of new work, set off on a journey to Germany. After visiting Dresden and Leipzig, he arrived in Potsdam on April 25. The city was at the time the virtual capital of Prussia and the residence of the cello-playing King Frederick William II. The following day a memorandum requesting that "one Motzart" had requested an audience with the king to "lay before him" his talents was presented to Frederick William, who referred the request to his director of chamber music, Jean Pierre Duport. What resulted is unfortunately not recorded at the time, but according to later reports supplied by Mozart's widow Constanze the king offered Mozart a post worth 3000 thaler a year. The composer is said to have expressed concerns about leaving his "good Emperor" (Joseph II) in Vienna. Whatever the truth of the story, Mozart returned to Vienna with some kind of a commission from Frederick William to compose six new string quartets. By June the present D major Quartet had already been completed, but of the remaining quartets only two were composed, and then only after the lapse of a year. Various reasons have been advanced as an explanation as to why Mozart was so slow in producing the "Prussian" quartets, but one is that the composer had received money "upfront" from the Prussian king; in a money-begging letter to Puchberg he mentions having the quartets engraved at his own expense ...
Mozart's Requiem Mass in D Minor II - Dies Irae
Mozart's Requiem Mass in D Minor II - Dies Irae John Eliot Gardiner conducts the English Baroque Soloists and the Monteverdi Choir. This performance was filmed at the Palau de la Musica Catalana, Barcelona in Dec. 1991. A Requiem Mass in the Roman Catholic tradition is a service designed to pray for the souls of the departed. The parts of the liturgy that are meant to be sung are what constitute all Requiem Mass compositions, including Mozart's. The structure is as follows: 1. Introit 2. Kyrie 3. Sequence: a. Dies irae b. Tuba mirum c. Rex tremendae d. Recordare e. Confutatis f. Lacrimosa 4. Offertory: a. Domine Jesu Christe b. Hostias 5. Sanctus 6. Benedictus 7. Agnus Dei 8. Lux Aeterna Mozart died before finishing the Requiem Mass, and his wife Constanze gave the task of finishing the work to a pupil of Mozart's named Süssmayr. From the Sanctus onward, the Requiem is the creation of Süssmayr, though he did use portions of the Introit and Kyrie for the Lux Aeterna. Despite, or maybe partially because of, the controversy surrounding this Requiem Mass, it is widely regarded as Mozart's greatest masterpiece. Below is the Latin and the English translation for the Dies irae. Dies iræ! dies illa Day of wrath and terror looming! Solvet sæclum in favilla Heaven and earth to ash consuming, Teste David cum Sibylla! David's word and Sibyl's truth foredooming! Quantus tremor est futurus, What horror must invade the mind, quando judex est venturus, when the approaching judge shall find, cuncta stricte discussurus! and sift the ...
Haydn Trumpet Concerto in Eb 2nd Mvmt.
Haydn Trumpet Concerto in Eb 2nd Mvmt. I love this song and truthfully I have never performed it. I found a midi file for it back when I was in middle school and the band director gave me a copy of the whole concerto but it just kind of drifted away for me. I've since performed the 1st and 3rd mvmts but wanted to play the 2nd so here it is for youtube!
Cecilia Bartoli
Cecilia Bartoli Live at the Munt,Brussel, april 2000 Sorry it's no CD quality. This is live, taken from radio, translated about 20 times in order to post it. You'll have to do with it! See more at 3.ly more: classical.punt.nl To teel you the truth I even like Cecilia's voice as much as Bill's(Christie) organ playing, while conducting his fabulous Les Arts Florissants. When I spoke to him mayby 5 years ago I said to him 'I think you have the best orchstra in the world' to which he answered ' well you may be right' It's a heavenly combi Bill and Cecilia. more: 64.233.183.104 Aria is from Juditha Triumphans by Vivaldi LE SOIR, 27-4-2000 POINT DE VUE MUSIQUE Il Trionfo! Cecilia Bartoli et William Christie interprétaient, mardi à la Monnaie, Vivaldi et Haendel. Rien n'est jamais gratuit dans un programme de Cecilia Bartoli. C'est avec une gerbe d'inédits suffocants qu'elle vient de faire au disque son entrée en Vivaldi (Decca). Au concert, elle recentre son propos sur la musique religieuse romaine. Un art qui conjugue le délire baroque et l'élan de la Contre-Réforme, à mi-chemin de la scène et de l'autel, comme l'atteste d'entrée de jeu le motet «In furore iustissimae irae» du Prêtre Roux. Et c'est miracle que de suivre dans l'oratorio «Judith triumphans» le parcours de Vagans.
