Goodmorning to all! :)

Today the carpenters will rebuild part of the office, at home, so the stereo is off line, and that means I am not able to play a single disc today, and that pisses me off. A music free day, and I do not like that. :P :P :P

I don't think Harry will be consoled by great poetry, Florestan, the poor man...

Maybe not, but he can always play anything he wants in his head. Right now I'm playing the Scherzo of Schumann's Fourth Symphony. :)

Nice choice, sir! And I bet it will be "sweeter" than any Harasziewicz.  :D

Congratulations!

Congratulations!

Have you been lying in wait all night?!!  ;D

Listening to:

Dyson, Symphony in G Major (Lloyd-Jones/Naxos)

A beautiful work from 1937. It  has a character all of its own, especially in its rhythmic vitality.

Britney Spears' Hit me baby one more time. What the heck does that mean, and what is it with pop songs and babies?? (I just found out that Britney Spears is a singer; it's good tune though).

and Wonder Girls' Kissing you (Korean band, very sweet and simple, well kind-of)

Okay now all is done, but I have to clean up after the havoc, and that takes time too.
A day without music is a lost day! :'(

You just found out that Britney Spears is a singer (and I use the word loosely)? You've been off-planet the last nine years, haven't you  ;D

P.S.  I agree, it's a damn fine tune actually.
the phone rings and somebody says,
"hey, they made a movie about
Mahler, you ought to go see it.
he was as f*cked-up as you are."
