Der lächelnde Schatten

NP: Nørgård Symphony No. 4



This 4th symphony comes from Nørgård's Adolf Wölfli-inspired period.

Listening to Konwitschny's 7th in his Beethoven cycle. I found this one in the thrift store but unfortunately only the second part (6-9th + overtures). The 7th makes me curious for his 3th, 4th or 5th. Does anyone have the full set?

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

Telemann, Georg Philipp (1681-1767) - Tafelmusik & Paris Quartets on the sets below - likely the most prolific composer of all time, as stated below - also take a look at his catalog HERE - own about 55 CDs of his music (all instrumental only).  Dave

QuoteTelemann was one of the most prolific major composers of all time: his all-encompassing oeuvre comprises more than 3,000 compositions, half of which have been lost, and most of which have not been performed since the 18th century. From 1708 to 1750, Telemann composed 1,043 sacred cantatas and 600 overture-suites, and types of concertos for combinations of instruments that no other composer of the time employed. (Source)

The String Quartets op. 33 Nos. 1 and 2 are exceptionally good, above all the first one. Delectable in spades, one of the most interesting ones from the classical period apart from Haydn, Mozart and Kalliwoda's. The op. 33-3 is not at the same degree of inspiration, but I did find it more than pleasurable.

The current annihilation of a people on this planet (you know which one it is) is the most documented and at the same time the most preposterously denied. The terror IS REAL!

Concerning Dmitri Tiomkin's song from High Noon, from @Karl Henning's Composing topic:


Quote from: Szykneij on May 28, 2025, 11:11:17 AMI always had trouble with the middle eight of that one. It goes from a sorrowful lament to a bouncy "He made a vow while in state's prison vowed it would be my life or his'n" section that seems out of place moodwise.



Here is the song:
