A loving tribute ...Oh Jos....what a gorgeous post! A loving tribute to your wonderful Mum - and to you....for in the end, your ears and heart opened... a magnificent list! Many favourites of mine are here - including the passionate Elgar Cello Concerto. (Have you seen the film "Hilary and Jackie"? If note you should..)<br />Adore Bach's "Goldman Variations" - and NO ONE can play them like the late Glenn Gould. (My Mum introduced me to him too!) In fact, most of these are great favourites of mine! I did not know about the Tomás Luis de Victoria - Obra: Motete Magnum Mysterium.....just listened to it...wow - what a powerful piece. I now must dig a little deeper and hear what else he composed. Thank you for this introduction!<br /><br />Have a magnifico time at "Il Travatore"!!!!! <br />A crazy plot - but listen to the AMAZING aria "Stride La Vampa sung by my favourite Mezzo - Dolora Zajick - on You Tube! <br /><br />A long comment I was carried away!<br /><br />Love,<br /><br />♥ Robin ♥Robinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15247046205493711677noreply@blogger.com
