Dude, you asked....
You BETTER not leave. I'm mighty pissed at all the good people leaving when they should be staying with vigor instead.

"What is wubba wubba?"




Saw a monster in the mirror when I woke up today
A monster in my mirror but I did not run away
I did not shed a tear or hide beneath my bed
Though the monster looked at me and this is what he said:

He said "Wubba wubba wubba wubba woo woo woo"
Wubba wubba wubba and a doodly do
He sang "Wubba wubba wubba" so I sang it too
Do not wubba me or I will wubba you
Do not wubba me or I will wubba you
Men profess to be lovers of music, but for the most part they give no evidence in their opinions and lives that they have heard it.  ~ Henry David Thoreau

Don't pray when it rains if you don't pray when the sun shines. ~ Satchel Paige

Unfortunately, no one here would admit to being anything than one of "the good people," so exactly who should be staying or going becomes a bit murky.

I worship Debussy's gentle revolution  -  Prelude To The Afternoon of A Faun  -  for its mostly carefree mood and its rich variety of exquisite sounds.

I absolutely agree with this.

Seconded, as either directly or indirectly inspired.

The only thing I recall from the Tao Te Ching happens to concern beauty: "Under heaven all can see beauty as beauty only because there is ugliness."  It's an interesting idea to consider. 
Music is the mediator between the spiritual and the sensual life. - Ludwig van Beethoven

So beauty comes from comparison. Why are we not allowed to compare 2 composers music again?

I am not allowed to give a philosophical answer from my own religion about my own question?


Questions should be answered from reason, not from religion, whether it's judaism or other bu.....it.

Three classic examples of classic beauty (Variazioni "at infinitum" are possible)



Leonardo da Vinci

Arthur Rimbaud : from :Les Illuminations

Marine

Les chars d'argent et de cuivre -
Les proues d'acier et d'argent -
Battent l'écume, -
Soulèvent les souches des ronces.
Les courants de la lande,
Et les ornières immenses du reflux
Filent circulairement vers l'est,
Vers les piliers de la forêt, -
Vers les fûts de la jetée,
Dont l'angle est heurté par des
tourbillons de lumière.



Victor Horta's house & atelier ( ca 1900) in Brussels.

Later: the beauty of horror and disease...you're warned!
