SUNDAY MORNING CLASSICS ON TBP

This is nkit’s last Sunday as a regular on Sunday Morning Classics On TBP.

I want thank him so much at this time for all of his efforts and hard work to make this thread successful. I honestly could not have done it without him.

nkit was there with me at the very start over three years ago and I will miss him.

I hope that he will contribute still as a non-member.

Our newest member of our ‘Classic Music Mafia’, Anthony Aaron, and I will continue to bring you classic music and more though.

Please come and see us everybody this week and enjoy.

Every Sunday morning we present selections for our TBP family to enjoy.

We present symphonies, ensembles, quartets, octets, etc.

Not all of our music is strictly ‘classical’. We may stray a little, but we strive to make all of our selections ‘classy’.

We offer tips on proper ‘symphony etiquette’ and even some selections that are a bit light-hearted and fun aimed at a younger audience. Those pieces will be so designated, and might be a good way to introduce kids to a world of music that they might not have been exposed to or think of as old and ‘stuffy’.

A full symphony will run as long as it will. We don’t want to cut a symphony short. However, we also include some shorter pieces that we try to keep under fifteen minutes in length. You can sample each and hopefully find one or more that pleases you.

We hope that you enjoy our Sunday selections.

WE WENT TO THE MOON – COUNT ON IT

“…If they can get you asking the wrong questions, they don’t have to worry about their answers…” — Thomas Pynchon – American novelist

Recently there was an article published here that we never went to the moon. That it was all a hoax. It not only created a lot of comments supportive of it, but it lead to a whole `nother discussion of ‘The flat Earth’ and some people’s support of that.

That was just too much for me. I have remained silent for some time about this moon landing thing, but no more. So for the record I will say that “Yes, we did go to the moon.”

I will describe why I believe that as I take apart the previous article.

nkit has informed me that he is leaving us. His last posting will be on April 16th which I already have from him.

I want to take this time to personally thank him for all of his hard work in making this submission to TBP what it has become over the last three years.

nkit is one of the four ‘originals’ of our ‘Music Mafia’.

SMC left early, then came back briefly, then left again.
Austrian Peter was with us until a year ago last October.

It has been just nkit and me for the last year and a half until Anthony Aaron graciously joined us a few weeks ago.

nkit believes Anthony to be a good replacement for him.

We will miss nkit’s contributions greatly, but we will continue.

Sooooooo. If there is anyone else out there that wants to join us please send me an email to that effect at [email protected]

I will need to have your offerings at least by the Wednesday before they are due as it takes me a while to compose all of this. A few weeks in advance would also be nice although not necessary.

I will re-post this for the next few weeks.

So now, on with this weeks offering…

SUNDAY MORNING CLASSICS ON TBP – THIRD ANNUAL EDITION

ADMIN COMMENT: I would like to congratulate Steve and the gang for three years of trying to culture you monkeys. Based on Friday Fail, they have a tough row to hoe. These posts certainly add value to TBP and more people should check it out every week on Sunday mornings. Maybe we can get it up to 1,000 comments, like Friday Fail. 🙂

 

This is our third annual Anniversary Edition of this feature on TBP. We are now starting our fourth year here at TBP. Who knew?

We make this and our annual Christmas Edition special by going all out and featuring anything that we want to post.

I keep the main feature Classical, but then we add anything that we want to add to our ‘shorts’ that follow.

So come and see us. Post your own favorite music in the comments section. It can be anything that you want. Jazz, Rock, Hard Rock, Classical, anything.

We want to take this time to thank everyone on TBP for allowing us to post these past three years. We hope to have many more.

Steve C.
