"With his Symphonia Domestica, Strauss literally took the music “into the bedroom,” depicting the average family life behind closed doors. After introducing each family member with a distinct theme, and after the music depicts the act of putting the child to bed (“cradle song”) the symphony develops into a three-part adagio, which is meant to evoke a love scene between the husband and the wife."
Richard Strauss - Symphonia Domestica, Op. 53
There's a park in Vienna with a place where the Strauss family presented their works to the upper crust. It still exists and they present original Strauss waltzes there. My ex-wife came to Vienna and we actually danced the original version of the waltz to that music.
Classical is still part of European culture (for now).
I agree and such a rich culture and history. Like anything that is cherished it must be nurtured and protected.
My grandfather's castle is in Europe and still quite beautiful. He grew up there - American history 101 - our ancestors came from Europe - We were the first to come here (Europeans).

The sexiest classical piece I have ever heard.
Heard is as part of an assignment in a college course..... still gives me chills..... it's long, but is worth it.
I'm sorry but Wagner cannot be described as "sexy", Wagner is Herz und Seele....Heart and Soul.
Sexy to me. When I hear Liebestod - I think it's very emotionally charged, and therefore to me, sexually charged, true love and sex to me go hand in hand.
That is what counts how the listener receives the musical piece.
Heaven save us from those who wish to control and contort our understanding of what is good in our lives.
Geez this is just a music thread.
And a lovely music thread it is! Much wonderful music. It's been a pleasure. Have a great day, Alex!

Okay I will....Alexandra should stay in the FZ where he's posting shit again....aren't you Alexandra, you posted a link to this very thread didn't you? I heard this on the grapevine.
Why I don't know, why would they be interested in Classical Music of all things? Seems like Alexandra is attempting to derail this Classical Music thread by encouraging trouble.

Can't we all just get along?
We can disagree and still interact and be friends, right?
I agree and also agree.

Salome (Richard Strauss) - Dance of the seven veils
Nobody ever cares about classical music. It seems you can't use it to get a girl. It goes even in a geek category, I guess. But I made an experiment, and I decided to play to my classmates the Chopin's Barcarolle. Guess what they all liked it, and one of the girls who I didn't think would ever look my direction, decided to go out with me. So, here is the question, why only my piano teacher hammers about practicing classical, and nobody else cares?
Even a blind squirrel eventually finds an acorn.

What a strange phrase, is this your own phrase? If so, I like it, it's very good.
