"Along with Leoš Janáček, Bohuslav Martinu was one of the twin giants of Czech music in the twentieth century, a composer with a distinctly individual voice and a versatility that led him to excel in every medium from stage works to symphonies to string quartets." - AllMusic
This playlist is compiled after the comprehensive catalog of Martinů's works prepared by the Belgian musicologist Harry Halbreich. Martinů wrote a bewilderingly large amount of music in various forms; in chamber music alone there's duos, trios, quartets, quintets, sextets, septets, octets and nonets, in all kinds of instrument combinations - like the Fantasia for theremin, oboe, string quartet and piano. You can use various keywords like "piano" or "concerto" to filter the playlist and create different radio channels.

ReplyDelete(Question? Do you know why Spotify only allows access to fragments of some larger works, like the operas? You'd think it would be all or none.)
Most likely it's because the labels (not Spotify) set long tracks as "album only". It makes sense for iTunes and Amazon MP3, not streaming services.
DeleteWonderful music - a bit of a revelation to me.
ReplyDeleteIt's been amazingly I'm sure you looked at the numbers. I have very little debt, tremendous assets. And great cash flows. It easy to fly, great for beginners, and it compatible with various VR headsets. It also has tall landing feet so that you don land on the camera or damage the drone. Of course, it also incredibly fun to fly, as it can do full 360 degree flips in all directions.
ReplyDeleteThunder, like the "crack" you hear when your fingertip discharges to the doorknob, is the sound of superheated air expanding explosively. A living body, of course, like electronic devices, is further disrupted by the presence of the voltage/current itself. A lightning rod, then, is simply an effort to supreme sweatshirt offer the discharge an easier path resist t shirt than through an object which might be damaged or destroyed by it.
