Three 'Feel Good' pieces for you.

[salymap]

Like many of us I have health problems. Listening to the Kodaly I thought I'd start this for your three feel good pieces - not necessarily great works. Off the cuff, as it were, I nominate

Kodaly Hary Janos

Janacek Mladi

Chabrier Marche Joyeuse

[cloughie]

Great idea

Debussy Arabesque No 1

Ravel Menuet Antique

Rimsky-Koraskov Piano Quintet

[Richard Tarleton]

This should cheer anybody up - the divine Jeanne Moreau sings this song, for no particular reason, in the film Jules et Jim. Someone chose it on Private Passions once.

[vinteuil]

o, I'm nearly always cheered up by almost anything by -

. Bach
. Scarlatti
. Haydn
. Vivaldi
. Rameau

[aka Calum Da Jazbo]

ah M Tarleton this little piece from Jules et Jim does it for me the Vacances Theme with the wonderful cycling in the country and beach scenes...

a perfect film

[BBMmk2]

Rather diffficult this.

Mahler, Symphony No.8(last section!!)
Wagner Die Meistersinger von Nurnberg Overture
Elgar: In the South

[Serial_Apologist]

Bartok:

Piano Concerto No 2

String Quartet No 5

Debussy:

Yes I listen to the 'greats' mentioned but was thinking 'lollipops' as in the Beecham days- perhaps you don't relax with them as I do...... Donna Diana is another one forme.

[ferneyhoughgeliebte]

Haydn: Symphony No 82.
Mendelssohn: Octet.
Stravinsky: Octet.

[JohnSkelton]

J.S.Bach, 5th Brandenburg Concerto
Joseph Haydn, Trio Hob.XV:31 'Jacob's Dream'

[Serial_Apologist]

That's restricting it before most of us were born, saly!

Oedipus Rex cheered me up when I was feeling particularly down - the music has a tremendous energy, & as for the subject - well, nothing I was experiencing was as bad as Oedipus' problems!

You got on all right with your dad then, Floss?

Does about 15 years between us mean you have never heard Tommy's CDs ? Alright, whatever turns you on S-A.
