But but but … there were two white men in the group oppressing the wimin. Surely that’s imbalanced or something? If all wimin they’s have been even better surely?
I’m so pleased that talent abounds and cares not what sex it falls to.
Vivaldi is great, but one gets tired of the four seasons as it’s over recorded IMHO. I prefer something more along these lines.
Classical music wise – I am – you very likely guessed it – a Richard Wagner fan! I’ve seen all his operas either in person or by DVD. Wagner is not popular in Germany as I discovered while stationed there in the 1970s because the composer was Hitler’s favorite – and Israel until recently banned him because of the Holocaust.
Of course, in the late 1960s when I became a Wagnerian I knew nothing about the composer, who was indeed a raving German revolutionary, nationalist and anti-Semite, I just liked the music, especially this one:
Oh yes!
Oh my!
Speaking of “oh my”………

“Wagner, it scares the hell out of the Slopes – my boys love it!”
….and who could forget this piece of classical music from a classical sci-fi movie made in 1968?

I like this version by Deodato – not quite classical……
