[Matisse] was interested neither in fending off opposition,
nor in competing for the favor of wayward friends.

Time well invested for sure.
Part of the tragedy of the Palestinians is that they have essentially no international support for a good reason: they've no wealth, they've no power, so they've no rights.

More Mahler from Fischer.

The first half of life is spent in longing for the second, the second half in regretting the first.

Nice! If you allow me, I recommend his Piano Concerto too. It has a quite beautiful slow movement.

Villa-Lobos: Uirapuru

Such a kaleidoscopic piece. It's nothing but evocative and magical.

Benjamin Britten
Soirées Musicales, op. 9
Matinées Musicales, op. 24
Variations on a Theme of Frank Bridge, op. 10
English CO - Sir Alexander Gibson

I don't think I knew Britten wrote two Rossiniana suites. Vibrant orchestrations they are.

As to the cover art, I knew something of the bathing carriages which allowed women to not be seen in their bathing wear, also transporting them from the water to the beach to change clothes discreetly. I don't think I have actually seen them depicted, though.

All the good music has already been written by people with wigs and stuff. - Frank Zappa
