I was suggesting a “recon” rather than jumping around willy nilly. You could spend an enjoyable month at a time with a style or composer. ------- Trying to simplify my life... | |||

A little later than Vivaldi, I also enjoy(ed) Mozart's bassoon concerto, composed when he was in his teens. הרחפת שלי מלאה בצלופחים | |||

Im not certain about lyrics. I’ve only listened to the instrumental. Your comment about 20th century origin is quite possibly correct. I’m going to butcher this badly with my hazy memory but there’s a question about Albinoni and the other guy. Claims that it was finished by the 2nd individual from notes that “A” started. Or was #2 trying to get some notoriety for his work? Years ago I purchased a greatest hits collection so to speak. A few CDs with examples of each period. From the Baroque all the way to modern periods. I started googling stuff and came across an article talking about authorship. Again, I’m butchering this badly. That’s why I was vague in my original post I’m not an authority by even the wildest stretch of the imagination. Dan I'm not as illiterate as my typos would suggest.☮ | |||

“Adagio in G minor for strings and organ, also known as Adagio in Sol minore per archi e organo su due spunti tematici e su un basso numerato di Tomaso Albinoni (Mi 26), is a neo-Baroque composition commonly attributed to the 18th-century Venetian master Tomaso Albinoni, but actually[citation needed] composed by 20th-century musicologist and Albinoni biographer Remo Giazotto, purportedly based on the discovery of a manuscript fragment by Albinoni. There is continuing scholarly debate about whether the alleged fragment was real, or a musical hoax perpetrated by Giazotto, but there is no doubt about Giazotto's authorship of the remainder of the work…” Wikipedia https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adagio_in_G_minor Serious about crackers | |||

I've always liked Maurice Ravel who composed with a variety of styles including Baroque elements. Bolero and Gaspard de la nuit are two of his most famous works. Bolero is orchestrated for symphony and Gaspard is a piano solo with three movements. __________________________ | |||

“Repetition is an important element of classical music, but it can be carried to the point of excess. That point comes near the end of Ravel’s “La Valse”. And near the beginning of his “Bolero”. —IDK The “Mother Goose” suite and “Le Tombeau de Couperin” are my favorite Ravel compositions. Serious about crackers | |||

^^^^ And that is why Mrs. BB61 doesn't like Bolero. I enjoy how it builds and builds. __________________________ | |||

Pipe Smoker, Thanks for the link. I looked at the references but didn't see anything I recognized. Must be at least 15 years ago when I bought that collection. Dan I'm not as illiterate as my typos would suggest.☮ | |||

So I've been continuing my journey. I've branched off here and there, still within the Baroque domain. Various concertos. The Gould Goldberg variations. And such. But largely I've kept with Vivaldi's Four Seasons. I started with Gil Shaham Orpheus version. And then the versions by Joshua Bell / Academy St Martin's, Trevor Pinnock / Simon Standage and also Rachel Podger. I'm looking for the versions by Viktoria Mullova and Giuliano Carmignola. I'm not learned enough to know what the differences are, whether they be interpretation, instruments, style, whatever. But definitely noting differences and developing preferences. No idea which are actually more critically accepted by real musicians, but I'm starting to have my own preferences. In any case, I'm enjoying myself and having tremendous fun. If only I had started this 40 years ago.... So much music, so little time. "Wrong does not cease to be wrong because the majority share in it."
