Beethoven't ninth and final symphony is one of the greatest pieces of Western music in all of history. The composition and concept behind it is beyond "Olympian", as it has often been described. Certainly it is one of the most powerful, hair-raising and rapture inducing musical pieces I have ever encountered. If you have the chance to see it performed live with a full symphony orchestra and large choir, I HIGHLY recommend it. Doing so years ago left me utterly speechless.
I chose to do this for the contest because the opening lines of the Choral, the final moment, "O Freunde, nicht diese Töne !"
( Oh friends, not these sounds ! ) came to mind when looking at Classical paintings of battles. Then when I saw the portrait of Beethoven himself the whole project crystallized. The title is a call to end all wars and to bring about the unity of the human race - beyond nations - "Alle menschen werden bruder". This is hardly a call without relevance today.
I used images from a free download site.

Music Link: "Ninth Symphony - Chorale" Opus 125 ( 1822-24 ) - Ludwig van Beethoven. Conducted in this video by Leonard Bernstein at a 1989 performance in Berlin to celebrate the removal of the Berlin Wall. Each conductor brings their own interpretation to the podium and thankfully Bernstein had the great sensitivity NOT to rush this symphony as so many others have done. The opening movement requires a stately grandeur to it that's best brought out by letting those gargantuan opening chord sequences in D Minor breathe and expand in consciousness to their fullest extant before careening ahead to the next ones. There are newer and sharper videos but Bernstein's nailed it for me for his impeccable and passionate interpretation.

Created for the 115 in 2015 Group - #34 Floppy
My special "Floppy" hat - perfect for a favourite pastime of mine - beachcombing. Floppy is quite perfect - I can roll it up and fit it into a pocket or stuff it into a camera bag. It is reversible - pink with a blue flower design, or deep blue with a pink flower motif. OK it isn't waterproof, but it does solve the problem of the sea breezes (often more like gales) blowing your hat off! I love big brimmed sun hats ... but gave them up long ago after the sea claimed one or two when they blew off. So Floppy is my go-to hat for sure ;o)
