Jazz for aficionados
@mahgister  I was lucky to witness the Big Band play live in the mid seventies, although at that point, I'd only recently begun my exploration of Jazz.  If I could hear them now, I suspect I’d get more out of the experience.    Lucky you! ...

Monteverdi as Gesualdo as Scriabin are not something we catch on the spot ... They are an acquired taste even for those who liked them at first listening... They are expressive artists on a high level, Gesualdo is almost more "modern" than most ...

The time we use is precious. You can work for more money or you can read a book any oligarchs will miss because they dont have time nor the passion to read it... I listen music 4 hours a day, i read 4 hours a day, i walk 3 hours a day... The mo...
