Y’know,
This Thanksgiving dinner preparation is beginning to seem an awful lot like work!

I agree with you about “Atlas Shrugged”.

And I DO appreciate a little bit of dissonance in music. I love Prokofiev and Stravinsky, and even Beethoven stretched the borders of harmony, much to the dismay of the musical “establishment”. But, in my very humble opinion, I find too much of that dissonance, for its own sake, annoying.

The three composers that I mentioned used discord discerningly and with intelligence, in order to provide contrast to some of the most exquisite melodies ever to grace the ears of humanity.

In the words of Maynard G. Krebs: “WORK?!”

That shows Beethoven’s miraculous range! He also wrote the 6th Symphony.

I like both.

It’s fun to put on a recording of the Great Fugue for people who think they know classical music, and then ask them to name the composer. The first guess is always Stravinsky. I love the expression on their faces when you say “Beethoven”.

No snow, but a storm is coming.

Snow next week.

THANK YOU for this thread Kathy.

Of course, turkey is good and it’s slow-cooking away.
