Thank you...I should spend more time listening to the real deal, as opposed to the Emerson, Lake, and Palmer version. :)
ReplyDeleteEvery time I listen to Copland, I am amazed at how he does it. And by how unpretentiously he goes about it.
ReplyDeleteOh, YES! Thank you, Roberta.
ReplyDeleteMaybe Handel's Music for the Royal Fireworks next?
My ears are happy for the first time in quite a while.
ReplyDeleteThank you.
