Vienne

Hello everyone! I am a longtime aficionado of classical music who has listened to a great deal of it in my leisure time. I appreciate composers of many styles and time periods but have a particular fondness for the later Baroque and Classical. I look forward to some enjoyable discussions with you of the music we appreciate.

Welcome aboard! There's plenty of fans of the Baroque and Classical Eras here. Out of curiosity, what part of Canada are you from?

Welcome from me too. I hope that you enjoy your time here.

Greetings with sturm und drang.

When, a few months before his death, Rachmaninov lamented that he no longer had the "strength and fire" to compose, friends reminded him of the Symphonic Dances, so charged with fire and strength. "Yes," he admitted. "I don't know how that happened. That was probably my last flicker."
