As one of the fun coincidences in musical history, I’ve always felt the final tune of ‘Der Mond’ sounds exactly like a proto-version of the type of romantic melodies conjured by Morricone for the sweeter parts in his western scores.
Glad to hear Robert Page's name mentioned. I was orchestra manager of my school orchestra in undergrad & Robert Page was a guest conductor. I was fortunate to get to spend a lot of time with him over his week & he was an amazing musician, condutor, teacher, and a sweetheart of a man. He only conducted one choral work...symphony of psalms 😮
One of my favorite home-rolled triple bills is Die Kluge--Der Mond--Carmina Burana. It's actually shorter than you'd think. Any one of those Greek affairs seem MUCH longer.
Hi Dave, I was wondering what your opinion is of the Michel Plasson recording. Though not a personal favorite, I have always enjoyed Natalie Dessay's performance on it.
Hi Dave, I know my question isn't connected to this video's topic, but what's your favorite performance of Rachmaninoff's Isle of the Dead? I'm very intrested to find out!

Now that you have shown us, it's time for a video from the overflow room while using the work out equipment 😮

I wasn't thrilled.

I honestly don't have one.
