the m/c club claims to have been founded in 1974. the drum corps was started in 1958.

You're just partial to toys with wheels.

I'm going to request some Canadian Brass, and the Blast! Bolero. <snicker>

I stand corrected. I thought the whole drum corps bit was a child of the eighties.



Please, anything but Borello!!

Selma,
Saw Lioness question this morning. You beat me to the description. The bore of the cornet is more conical in shape and this is one of the reasons it has as some people say a "Sweeter" sound than a trumpet. I have a short model cornet that is used when playing in a traditional English Brass Band.
There are some fabulous brass band works. I think I will request one be played this morning!
Regards,
Howard

I requested a piece called Dances and Arias by Gregson this morning. It is a piece for traditional English Brass Band. It was written for the 1984 Brass Band Championships in England.
The North American Brass Band Championships here in the US also used the piece.
Not sure if BB.com will have a CD of this. Hope they do.
The piece runs about 13 minutes and is very good!
Regards,
TM

Way to go lioness! I heard your request!

[lioness]

yeah, me too!! i try to get in one a day.

i really enjoy Verdi and his E Min/String Quartet is one of my favs. my cd is scratched right through the Andantino & Prestissimo pieces (SUX!!)

i'm happy BR has it on file.

I think it's great that there is a station where not only do they play your requests, they usually play them quickly. . .and they LIKE to play them.

Wonderful!

Psst. . ..YES, that WAS out loud!

[OperaTenor]

[mmichaelson]

Yes? Do you need a losenge?

[OperaTenor]

Nope, my ears were burning, and for some reason that triggers a cough reflex.

:confused:

[treebeau]

ROFL!

[OperaTenor]

I guess I'm having a tenor day - I thought it was all about me.

:p

[mmichaelson]

It wasn't about you!

But that's ok!

[Selma in Sandy Eggo]

That LSO rendition of "I Heard It Through the Grapevine" is pretty bad. Should'a been called Dance Of The Dead Dinosaurs - my dancing raisins passed out from sheer boredom.

Too slow, very heavy feel to it, the whole rock edge was completely gone.

<snore>

What was that?? My phone rang?? I was sleeping??

Brahms 2nd is on right now.
One of my favorites!
