The charming little hotel where I stayed in Venice had a terrace restaurant where I ate one night. The hotel was the home of the famous composer, Vivaldi, and was on St. Mark's Basin. It was also next to this great canal where one had a view of several bridges.

from my garden...

I look out of this window and I think this is a cosmos,

this is a huge creation, this is one small corner of it.

The trees and birds and everything else and I'm part of it.

I didn't ask to be put here, I've been lucky in

finding myself here.

A Lensbaby photo taken in the summer of 2024 at the Enabling Garden in Altoona, Iowa. I had a slight bend ‘up’ on the lens that focused on the red flowers in the back. I did color-pop that high center area and also increased the contrast equalization a bit using a mask in Darktable. I think this was my very first attempt at bending or tilting the lens with the Composer Pro II.

Legendary composer Burt Bacharach, whose hits include “I’ll Never Fall in Love Again,” “Raindrops Keep Fallin’ on My Head” and “I Say a Little Prayer,” has died. He was 94.

in memory of one of my favorite songs :

Raindrops Keep Falling On My Head

Raindrops are falling on my head

And just like the guy whose feet are too big for his bed

Nothing seems to fit

Those raindrops are falling on my head, they keep falling

So I just did me some talking to the sun

And I said I didn't like the way he got things done

Sleeping on the job

Those raindrops are falling on my head, they keep falling

But there's one thing I know

The blues they send to meet me

Won't defeat me, it won't be long

Till happiness steps up to greet me....

Under the same keys, two musical worlds came together in an event celebrating the 150th anniversary of the births of Sergei Rachmaninov and Maurice Ravel. Four pianists, divided across two pianos, brought to life significant works by the two composers, each interpreting their unique musical language with mastery. Rachmaninov was represented through his romantic virtuosity, while Ravel shone with his impressionistic refinement. An extraordinary evening in which the stylistic diversity of these two musical worlds intertwined harmoniously, offering the audience a memorable experience of unity and creativity.

Marian Petrescu Jazz Trio – Symphony No.3 in F, Op.90 (Brahms) 🎧

---- Thanks to Eloy Gonzalo García ----

The Composers Quarter Hamburg is a gathering of six museums in the Peterstraße in Hamburg-Neustadt, Germany. The associated museums have one or two classical composers as a theme who were born or have lived in the city of Hamburg (G.P. Telemann, C.P. Emanuel Bach, J.A. Hasse, Fanny and Felix Mendelssohn, Johannes Brahms and Gustav Mahler) The museums are located in restored historical buildings.

-----------------------

"People usually complain that music is so ambiguous, and what they are supposed to think when they hear it is so unclear, while words are understood by everyone. But for me it is exactly the opposite...what the music I love expresses to me are thoughts not to indefinite for words, but rather too definite."

--Felix Mendelssohn--

The busts of major composers adorn the walls of this salon in the Austrian State Opera House (Staatsoper) in Vienna.

The Austrian State Opera (Staatsoper) is a massive operation that employs over a thousand administrators, workers and performers. During the annual season from early September until mid June, that season's shows are performed on a rotating basis requiring a complete set change everyday since there is a show almost every night. In fact there are often two set changes in a day due to the need for dress rehearsals.
