Depending on who was on the ticket, I could go for that. I am a moderate, and will never support a hardright nor a progressive candidate.

Belle, in the type church I attend, the following is the typical response to those caught in such behaviors: he is fired and 'blackballed', the wife usually leaves him, law enforcement does their thing when needed, help is offered where needed. If guilt is established, he is to confess publicly and ...

Speaking as a non-Catholic, the news I see reports the current Pope as working to solve some of this. I think he should do so. Officials 'on the payroll' who betray their charge to uphold the moral principles of their position are best removed.

If a conductor is determined to run you off/keep you humiliated, you may as well bust him in the chops and be done with it

I recall an lp which had the 3rd mvt section. Seems like it was on the Odyssey (Columbia product) label.

david johnson

Thank you for the link. I have saved it and will use it to give a listen

david johnson

John, the nonsense would be Hil and self-styled progressives. The loonies all live at the polar extremes of politics, left or right.

david johnson

John, the other half voted for Hil. She's as bad as Trump is said to be. Neither of them are a Jim Jones/Larouche.

david johnson

I definitely remember him. I never knew he wanted to lower to A=432.

Today I am finishing the HvK/Philharmonia Beethoven symphony cycle. It arrived a few days ago for $6 and change from ArkivMusic. I have enjoyed it. To me it sounds much lighter than the BPO recordings with the same conductor.

david johnson

saw that last week. super fun. I laughed aloud at the John Cage section.

david johnson

Please, no Pelosi in the WH

david johnson

The quote in bold type seems to talk about concerts, rather than festivals. Of course there would be concerts at festivals, nut the atmospheres are not the same, as far as I can tell.

david johnson

Lance, how did that Stokowski Phase 4 product turn out? I only bought a few digital music items this year - voxmegabox Renaissance Choral Music, Handel oratorios, and complete Haydn String Quartets.

Surely, Gillette will soon air the toxic femininity ads.

I tend to doubt the op review as being 100% accurate. It sounds more like a mix of acoustics and pre-conceived notions. Depending on equipment/performer, a piston trumpet can sound even more mellow than a rotary trumpet. I mostly go piston, but have heard some fine rotary action, for sure.

david johnson

Sad news, indeed. God bless.

Welcome among us, Musicwaiter.

I taught in public education for forty years. It was mostly good, with a few nuts in admin and counselling. The most aggravating thing was the continual drivel coming down from state education departments. a 'new method/procedure' is always presented as 'the way it will be from now on', then it is r...

Allegations are not proof, but it should not hurt to investigate them. Not long ago, some of the allegations against a Supreme Court nominee were withdrawn, and at least one accuser admitted she lied.

david johnson

WOW! Thanks for your hard work.

david johnson

Thank you, Lance. May a blessed and peaceful holiday show up in all our stockings.

david johnson

Neat discussion.

david johnson

I have two recordings of the Tchaikovsky/Bogatyryev. I prefer the Ormandy and have had the lp since it came out decades ago.

david johnson

Hey, Wallingford, I STILL have a few of these lps :) Two weeks ago, I picked up a load of about twenty vinyl albums at a sale taking place at my alma mater. Among them were: A Chabrier Concert ……Dervaux, Orch. Colonne (Seraphim S-60108) Dvorak Slavonic Dances (complete)…..Dorati, Bamberg Sym. (Turna...

If you are truly lucky, someone will play the Jessica Simpson Christmas album for you … non-stop

Winter Storms Waltz/Fucik - one of my favorites

I am enjoying Haydn's London Symphonies, Bernstein/NYPO, on this early Thanksgiving morning. Have a happy turkey, or whatever suits you taste buds

david johnson

You all are speaking of Trump. I am speaking of Waters.

david johnson

Maxine Waters deserves all the mocking she can get, and probably more. I do not know much about the others.

david johnson

I greatly enjoy the Kunzel music I have and have heard.

david johnson

I have the old Bernstein recording. I first heard the work when I was a teen listening to the radio program "Music 'til Dawn"

Belle speaks truth

Belle speaks truth.

Muckey wed one of the NYPO string players a couple of years ago.

david johnson

Hil? Her, too. The further left or right the tale comes from, the less true it is.

david johnson

If Pelosi is involved, it's ALL malarkey.

david johnson

Not everyone does, but I enjoy "Enterprise" more that TNG.

david johnson

I will go with how the name's wearer prefers. If not available, it's my bad luck.

david johnson

I have not watched an Oscars ceremony in many years. It became tedious rather than entertaining. Maybe a new category will help.

david johnson

It's the 'point of proof' that you use. The immeasurable can not be measured. I hope you someday believe.

david johnson

I looked up their 'address'. I had a friend who auditioned but did not make it, and one who did. I was in the 106th for a while.

david johnson

notice the wink in my statement...of course I was joking. However, God exists and I am a believer. No wink.

david johnson

That's the Field Band from Ft. Meade. They are the tour band.

david johnson

A rough kick in the crotch is what they need. However, I do not understand how there can be a statute of limitations for some crimes but not one for allegations. How does that work?

david johnson

That "Ancient Aliens" tv show has a lot to say about this topic ...

david johnson

You guys have mentioned some greats, for sure. Lance, I studied out of the Williams Scales book in college. I seem to remember he also had a transposition method book.

david johnson

Good points, for sure. A former student of mine has a struggle with this and did considering ending it all. Things have improved some now.

david johnson

A birthday? Hooray for you

“ISLAM is not a RACE, lefties. Islam includes EVERY RACE of people.” this is true. You appear to have somewhat missed the point of the ad hominem remark Roseanne Barr aimed at Valerie Jarrett — her alluding to Planet of the Apes was the racist part of the tweet, whereas referring to the Muslim Brot...
