Tone Poem Tuesday
I don’t know anything at all about this piece. I heard it while driving to work one morning last week, and I liked it quite a lot. It’s a dramatic and romantic miniature by Anatoly Liadov, called About Olden Times. … Continue reading
Symphony Saturday
OK, after much hemming and hawing, it’s time. The symphonies of Gustav Mahler represent perhaps the apex of the symphony itself as a musical form. These are enormous works that make enormous demands on the listener. They are dense in … Continue reading
Bad Joke Friday

Bad Joke Friday
Apologies if you don’t remember your high school French!
