Presenters - Again

[cloughie]

Ah but - according to no less an authority than Wiki the Ouverture Of Masques et bergamasques (which he played) is from an abandoned 1869 symphony. Also a complete list of Faure’s opus numbers shows Op. 40 - Symphony in D Minor, 1884 - MS destroyed .....

A prolific symphonist then ........

For a short while it seems. A Faure Symphony might have been very pleasant - ah well the things that might have been.

It would indeed have been very pleasant cloughers - and if anybody can find them Skellers can .......

I'm sure A Certain English Composer whose first name is Colin could be found who would be prepared to do an orchestrated version of one of those highly symphonic in nature (imv) chamber works.

Tom Service, just slow down, for goodness sake!

I caught the last few minutes of Music Matters today (just in time to switch off my radio to avoid Jess Gillam). It sounded like the commentary on the finish of the 3:15 from Newmarket!

Complete avoidance of both the individuals you mention is the only approach in this household.

Oh God not this again.... just get over yourselves people.... find something positive to say like "I love this music because...."

Y'know, there's thread about.....Listening.... why not go and tell us what makes you smile over there....

I find it eternally interesting to learn about other people's preferences. They're only statements of fact as far as the Like/Dislike point is concerned. I hope they will indicate what they like or dislike (and I'll compare my views). As far as presenters are concerned, they are (in my view) only talking about personas - the person as presenting themselves naturally, but more often at least partly, knowingly, acting. I don't LIKE or DISLIKE any person.

If you go into a shop for 2lbs of sugar and you come out with 2lbs of sugar, it's not remarkable. But if you find they've wrapped up an old brick, you're furious.

But if it happened every week for a month, and if it got reported in the local press every week, every month, the fury might get replaced by.....a species of exasperated ennui....

And no one would go to that shop again.....

[Count Boso]

Bit if it happened every day for a month, and if it got reported in the local press every week, the fury might get replaced by.....a species of exasperated ennui....

Well, no. I think I should get more and more furious and I'd go round to their house with a note saying, I do wish you would STOP DOING THAT. It's very annoying.

Well I guess if you've nothing better to do & are unaware of the Principle of Heads & Brick Walls.... think of all those symphonies you might have heard, and even written about, in the time it took for your trip to their neighbourhood....

I guess its time for one now....perhaps in my head, as I strike out for the woods...
happy listening everyone...!

A shame people turned off - it was an interesting if depressing debate with a distinguished line up and some well chosen clips. Whatever his delivery speed Tom chaired it well

It was just an analogy. I hear others saying that they found the programme interesting and the presenter did well. But I'd don't mind reading either opinion.

Ah yes but he might be inciting this domestic attack while wearing headphones and Walkman like device....

OK then what's the soundtrack...?

The 3.15 from Newmarket, according the first post.
