Well, I just couldn't resist this... it's Bill Bailey again, but in a longer item and this is him demonstrating his absolute musicality in response to some random questions from Classic FM.. stick with it right to the end (my fave bit is Fur Elise..., what's yours?)
I was especially interested in Somewhere over the Rainbow. Never thought about it like Bill describes but so true.
ReplyDeleteI have many favorite instrumentals they all take my mine places
Strangers on the Shore and many others by Acker Bilk
Theme from A summer place
Music Box Dancer
All of Kenny G's album Breathless...I love a saxophone
Herb Alpert...oh I need to stop
Hugs cecilia
that was very interesting. We too love Somewhere over the rainbow - classic. We didn't quite finish the video, have to run to get the grandtwins at school, but will come back to it later.
ReplyDeletei wish i could play and play like he did in fur elise... he is a gifted man on that piano for sure. sound of london sounds like what they play in some of my action movies when things are going wild.
ReplyDeleteNo complaints here for returning to Bill Bailey, but didn't we have the Für Elise in a major key joke in an earlier video you posted?! Personally, I just love the idea of 'on hold' music that comes to a firm conclusion so you can know when your call would be answered. If only!
ReplyDeleteto get the sense of a song from a melody was my fail while I went to piano lessons... I never got that sense LOL
ReplyDeleteThis was such fun. I always love to know who a person's favorite composer is. Mozart never wrote bad music. Love him♥
ReplyDeleteHi Yam - I'll have to be back ... I get cut off ... so will return - but he's incredibly talented. I hope things are slowly panning out for you - thinking of you - hugs - Hilary
