  5. Should a tech tycoon be able to pay his way into conducting a world-class orchestra? And should they really sell tickets?
    By Tom Service

    Elon Musk may be able to buy a trip to Mars, but when the super wealthy pay to be conductors – as Canadian entrepreneur Mandle Cheung is doing – it makes a mockery of a meritocracy in classical music

  7. RE: ottawa.place/@Dianora/11701691

    I had mentioned there were two missing pipes from the Dominion Chalmers organ a few days ago. I received a reply from Mara Brown Director Carleton Dominion-Chalmers Centre (CDCC) today.

    The two pipes are indeed out for repair and they continue to look for support ($) to repair some of their neighbour pipes. I'll make a donation I think.It is a beautiful pipe organ!

    >>Classical music is becoming more popular, especially among younger people...<<

    Is that claim really true? My impression is that the audience for classical music is getting older and older.

    I'd be happy to see evidence that my impression is mistaken!

  10. Liberated from its ludicrous libretto: how the magnificence of Oberon can be properly heard at last
    By Mark Elder

    Full of panache and originality, Weber’s grand opera is the work of a composer at the height of his powers – but its plot is a load of nonsense. The conductor of its Proms premiere celebrates its brilliance

  12. it's Monday, which means it's time for #MoodMusicMonday where I pick the mood and you pick a song or songs you think fits the mood!

    Today's mood is going to be "boring".

    The song or songs can be about being bored or being boring or they can even be boring songs or during a period where the band/artist produced (in your opinion) boring music or however you want to interpret it!

    (tho preferably, don't interpret it to mean boring as in digging a hole >_>)

    Be sure to include the hashtag #MoodMusicMonday and the mood "boring".

    If you can, include a link to the song so others can hear too!

  13. Avshalomov -- Hutongs of Peking -- Yu Long & Shanghai Symphony Orchestra
    youtu.be/dlI-VGJLTWc?si=9mYiGM

    This is the first time I've heard of Aaron Avshalomov, let alone the 1931 "Hutongs of Peking"; of course, this might reflect ignorance or at least parochialism on my own part rather than any obscurity of Avshalimov.

    Oddly enough, I was reminded of another piece of orchestral topographic programme music composed only a few years before, Resphighi's "Pines of Rome".

    I wonder how popular or well known this piece is amongst Chinese music lovers today.

    The notes by DW in the description section provide helpful biographical information on Avshalimov.
