I did a few articles for Guitar Review decades ago, including one analyzing a Brouwer guitar concerto. I don't even recall everything I did way back then.Bryan Townsendhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09482696991279345516noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8827040061563065922.post-13484057174073454182015-03-10T18:38:30.360-05:002015-03-10T18:38:30.360-05:00The Berger is at:

Could you put it up? I'm not on Spotify, nor even YouTube. But if you search this blog you will see a number of compositions that I have posted here.

Nice job ...Hi Marc, and welcome to the Music Salon. Nice job of hermeneutics! I'm not a big Elgar fan, true. But in this case, I simply wrote the first part of the post, then listened to the piece (well, some of it!) and then left a closing comment. So, I was somewhat won over by the music. Yes, there was the implication that Norman Lebrecht's tastes are somewhat inexplicable and there probably are many better candidates for album of the year. Hey, that was fun!<br /><br />You should leave some more comments.Bryan Townsendhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09482696991279345516noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8827040061563065922.post-5383109113637616192015-03-06T13:26:06.345-06:002015-03-06T13:26:06.345-06:00I like Dream of Gerontius myself, although I only ...I like Dream of Gerontius myself, although I only listen to it perhaps once every two or three years. You don't, I take it-- am a very new reader, so am not much expert at reading the nuances of your posts. Or is it Elgar in general, or oratorios in general, you dislike? (Perhaps you simply mean that NL's tastes are inexplicable, ha.) Perhaps you meant that there were fifty <i>better</i> candidates for AOTY.Marc in Eugenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04331547981498637474noreply@blogger.com
