This is the famous Symphony #6 by Beethoven. It evokes a day in the country, hence its nickname, The Pastoral Symphony"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t2VY33VXnrQ

There were lots of versions on You Tube. This one is Leonard Bernstein's interpretation. I was raised on the Von Karajan version, but this one is very nice too. I notice a few little nuances of dynamics, but that is what makes it interesting to listen to different conductors.

I know I missed last Saturday, so I hope this makes up for it!

Enjoy.

Ah..Thank you for the clickable Link!

[Bullish]

You’re welcome, those are kinda’ helpful.

I usually don’t have any problem making the link clickable, but I guess it doesn’t work in the OP that way. Anyway, it is appreciated.

[Bullish]

It's just this simple html code without any spaces after or before the < >:

Example:

< a href=PUT HERE YOUR LINK NO SPACES >TYPE YOUR MSG HERE LIKE I PUT -LINK- THEN CLOSE THE TAG WITH < /A >

Remember no spaces after or before any < >.

Hope that helps and I enjoyed the music... Thanks

You can also provide the link in the link box in the post heading. then you would have been provided a clickable link upper left side in your post header.

I actually prefer this to the 5th Symphony. BTW, Ludwig also composed a piano sonata in a similar vein. Opus 28 in D Major. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IblxeFAcqrc

I often knock this around on the piano after a grueling day to set everything right with the world.

Thanks for that! I will give it a try next time I post this thread. :-)

Indeed...I prefer it to the 5th as well.

I like the 7th a lot too!

Actually, I like ‘em all, but this is my favorite.

LOL, Joe! That’s a Good One! :-)

The Bernstein Boogie.

The Bernstein Boogie.

And that's for Barber's Adagio for Strings. You should see him on Gershwin's Cuban Overture.

He REALLY shakes his bootie for Shostakovitch!

Here's a comical, delightful break as well....unless I sent this to you previously! :)

Typewriter Symphony

I saw that live, half a century ago, with Arthur Fiedler conducting.

It was a Boston Pops favorite, by Leroy Anderson.

One of my favorites too.
