Tchaikovsky: Symphony No. 6, 'Pathétique' - Cleveland Orchestra: George Szell conducting

Tchaikovsky said he wept while composing this, and died 9 days later. Cause of death is suspected to be suicide by drinking water infected with cholera. If that's true, it's a huge case of depression.

The music is dark and brooding, sometimes depressing and in some parts also very beautiful. I haven't heard George Szell conduct it, but he was one of the great conductors of the past for romantic era music so I suspect it'll be nice.

So the country doesn't matter then?. It's the chicks that matter. :D

Although it definitely doesn't count for all (of either genre), I tend to put most Country and Rap into the same category: CRAP.

That said, I probably like more genres than almost anyone else you'll meet! ?

There are only two kinds of songs:

1) Songs I like

2) Songs written for somebody else

I like from some to a lot of just about any genre. Least favorites are Rap and Heavy Metal. I get bored quickly, but still there are a few gems in both of those genres.

Putumayo - Cabo Verde(sem influências desastrosas) - Various Artists

Music from the Cape Verde Islands.

Pretty much sums up my feelings about it.

Whenever i hear a rap "song" i get this thought of -how lazy can a musician get? ?

Here's A recording of a tune I posted on Soundcloud many years ago. I called it Spanish Serenade (Serenata española) for some reason people that heard it thought it was 2 guitars. I love the way Pepe Romero does it    

 

 

 

 

 

Hey, isn't that two guitars? ?
