Sunday Evening Music
Mozart, Piano Concerto No. 25 in C major, K. 503.
As I continue a weekend filled with work, I am listening to this, and thought you should too.
P.S. The state of being preoccupied by work is expected to last several weeks. I am not abandoning the blog, but though the rest of this month and all of May I expect to leave it primarily in the capable hands of JVW and Dana. Please join me in extending heartfelt thanks to them for all they do.

If you run through this one and are looking for more, let me suggest number 24, which I listened to before this one.

In light of today’s election, might I recommend some solo piano composed by Maurice Ravel.
AZ Bob (f7a491) — 4/23/2017 @ 7:52 pmGershwin asked Ravel to tutor him in classical composition techniques. Ravel’s answer was to ask Gershwin to teach him how to make money.
kishnevi (3bfc26) — 4/23/2017 @ 8:02 pmI admit I wasnt as familiar with that piece?

JVW, Dana: as you were.
JP (f1742c) — 4/24/2017 @ 4:44 ammozart probably wishes gershwin could have taught him a thing or two about making money

Mozart, he was that Austrian-speaking piano player from old Vienna, and Salzburg, and a couple of more unmentionable places, too, no ???
11B40 (6abb5c) — 4/24/2017 @ 8:38 amJVW/Dana: tip of the hat.
DCSCA (797bc0) — 4/24/2017 @ 9:47 amhhthank you, nice choice, and one reason why Mozart is conidered a Masetr. ther hav benmany very good classicl compoasrs, snd a few who achieved the level of a Maestro but ony hndfful who wrew truse Masters of the art form up whichso mauch is based, from contemporaray musi throughout th ges, to math, to human glimpsesinto the Divine,, Mozart, Beethoven, and Bach are among my favorites-
NeoCon_1 (63894c) — 4/24/2017 @ 1:36 pmThis wouldn’t work as on-hold music when calling an 800 number. It is too interesting, nd you pay too much attention. And it’s too long for mood music in a movie.
