Non-Classical Music Listening Thread!

    I suppose you could classify ground beef as non-classical.

@San Antone Do you have any butcher or local grocery store nearby that grinds their own meat?  If not, you can also do it at home.

I buy locally grown and processed grass-fed beef, free-range chicken, and foraging pork (although less and less of this). I live in a rural county with a lively farm-to-table culture.  When I had my teeth cleaned last week, I bought a dozen eggs from the hygienist.

I still prefer my hamburgers well done.

An audio recording of the grinding could be classified as musique concrète and thus technically classical .

In good symphonic music, there's no place for anything vegetarian.

Nice selection of ambient music with beats .

Not much classical music in the last couple of weeks, but I've been playing the new Avantasia album, Here be Dragons a great deal. Nice if you like this sort of thing.

Sound was off for the 1.5 seconds it took to see that you're being annoying.

Elvis Costello : Il Sogno
Michael Tilson Thomas, LSO



It is a ballet score for orchestra commissioned by the Aterballetto Dance Company of Reggio Emilia in 2000. The ballet itself used A Midsummer Night's Dream by William Shakespeare for its subject material. The premiere performance took place on 31 October 2000, at the Teatro Comunale di Bologna. (Wikipedia)

Costello did his own orchestration.

A curiosity, but not something I find worth hearing again.  I much prefer his usual kind of thing, which he does extremely well.  This work is nothing special musically, the fact that it exists is where most of the interest is.

[Madiel]

Huh? That is a killer set.

This is predominantly a classical music forum. Do you really think it's appropriate to single out one member to tag for not liking this kind of music, just because I engaged with you on the subject? There are a wealth of people on this forum that wouldn't have.

     Larry Young is very all right

     The story is Tony Williams got Jack Bruce to draw fans initially. They got much more than that. Here he's playing standup, though most of the time he used the same Gibson EB-3 he used with Cream. Personally I don't care for that bass and I would have loved to hear him on an insrument with less mud like a Guild or a P bass.

Offbeat/marginal pandemic-era acquisition. Considering a cull, but enjoyed it more today than on previous listens. It is uneven, and a couple of pieces haven't aged so well (or perhaps weren't great to begin with  ).

Man, I got old.

Hey, it beats the alternative!
