And right now, the Divertimento in D major #17 K 320b - (Mozart of course). In honor of Steve's new website! What a splendidly 18th century sound too.

HAS ANYONE EVER HEARD THE VERSION FOR STRING ORCHESTRA? IT TRANSLATES VERY WELL AND IS TRULY PROFOUND AND POWERFULL!

Can you give me the reference for that? I know that Arturo Toscanini transcribed some of the Maestro's string quartets for orchestra? Does that include Grosse Fugue?

GOOD MORNING!
Hey sorry, what is 'laddie'? Maybe it's still too early for me today, after a night watch to Australia and the formula 1 race

Now, I go to count 60 beans, prepare the Hüttenbrenner CD. His Missa and the Requiem will give me the right sunday morning feeling.

I wish you just the same...

No Pastorali, you would never abandon us would you? I was beginning to miss you being around too.
I must say that I like my coffee rich and strong, but 60 beans per cup must have tasted like creosote! (a preservative for wood).


This Sunday morning I am listening to Beethoven's - Christus am Olberge.
Chorus music, Das Neue Orchester.

Ah, you've been to Australia, I suppose that is a suitable reason. "Laddie" merely means "young man" in a colloquial sense, generally reserved for people you are friendly with. For you "60 beaners" out there, this morning in response to that thread, I counted my bloody beans and I used 56. However, I drink 2 "cups" of coffee totaling about 1.5 liters, and I guarantee you that you would think my coffee strong, so my hat is off to B if he had 60 in 1 cup!!
Meanwhile, the dulcet tones of the Zurich Tonhalle Orchestre led by David Zinman are wafting through thte air along with the coffee aroma, currently playing the 3rd movement of the lovely Symphony in d minor by that coffee gourmet himself...
