Music is its own language. It speaks all languages and its very special own language that all people of all ages understand and yet interpret through their own experiences.<br />During the daily silences of our own lives, we actually think/hear/make our own music to accompany our innermost selves. Listen carefully, or you will miss some of the most noteworthy aspects of our being.<br />Hum along whenever you wish.Ken Previtihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10513924091013990654noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1797875972831999598.post-28322012189560132712013-09-29T18:13:37.692-05:002013-09-29T18:13:37.692-05:00From Ken P.

My wife is not an opera buff or mere aficionado, she is an opera fanatic. When things are really tough for us, the music from the three riddles scene of Puccini's Turandot blares. My wife not only sings and dances, there have been times I have seen her levitate. <br /><br />Verdi's Falstaff is definitely for laughing at the absurdity of it all. The Humming Chorus in Puccini's Madama Butterfly or his Crisantemi soothes the most savage breast. The list goes on and on. I prefer conducting myself; my dancing leaves much to be desired. <br /><br />This is no joke. For a short jolt of simple tenderness, Beethoven's Fur Elise or Chopin's Etude #3 in E minor will do. But for real roaring power, the beginning of act one in Verdi's Otello will let it rip. There is a great deal of absurd lunacy in all the daily singing and listening, but it is a great coping device and a magnificent way to journey through life. <br />gbrownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13435049339082622611noreply@blogger.com
