Patf Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 I don't know if you like what used to be called chamber music, but I think it's good to lisen to at home , in a small room. I play this kind of music when doing the ironing, found this one which must be a classic:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S3tmFhrOgNk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mint Posted April 29, 2016 Author Share Posted April 29, 2016 Poor Norman, you must be losing your touch in more senses than one?Sorry, didn't mean to make fun......it's just such a lovely day here, after a period of variable and damp weather, that I feel on top of the world and everything looks alive and interesting and my childish side is to the fore[:D] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mint Posted June 12, 2016 Author Share Posted June 12, 2016 On the basis that a bit of melodrama never does anyone any harm, I am pointing you to this [url]http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b07g8nrm[/url]I do realise that it may not be to your exact (and exacting!) taste but it beats watching football and listening to military bands which seem to have featured all day.Personally I love the intermezzo from CR and the prelude from Pag. Also, they have found a neat way of melding the 2 operas together, neat and appropriate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
