    ...more Bach goodness.


    A performance of the Tocatta Adagio & Fuge for organ transcribed for piano by Ferruccio Busoni. This is the work that Leela opens her London concert with the first time she performed before an audience since she was ten years old.

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jrFz8G3wEKo

    the Busoni organ transcriptions are a unique challenge in that the fuges carried three voices on the keyboards and the fourth in the pedal which all had to be performed on the single keyboard.


    When she was to perform her first organ concert in Leipzig during her continental tour the organ was damaged by vandals. She instead played her entire concert on the pedal harpsichord which started with this same work. I wish I could find a performance of this work on that instrument. However here is the monumental Passacaglia in C minor which she closed the recital out with (performed by E Power Biggs)

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p01w8MpOkxM

    In spite of the more delicate nature of the harpsichord, the performance was incredibly well received and a number of reviews claimed the passion she performed with exceeded that of these works on their original instrument.

    ...yes she is and an absolute musical genius.

    Of course in the story the "father figure" is the independent minded Lady Meggan Grande and there are actually two "vampa" one being Secretariat General Rita Kovek of the Serbian regime and the other I will not disclose at it would be a terrible spoiler.

    Though she can hold a tune way better than Leela can.

    I hope this isn't off topic, but here are some amusing quotes from an old message board I used to go to. The clean ones, anyhow.

    In a truther thread: I'll save time for anyone not wanting to kill their brain cells reading those condescending garbage posts pretending the author knows about physics.
    "'Gravity didn't make the towers fall. What did? I'm not telling. The government edited all the footage that was broadcast everywhere and brainwashed the direct eyewitnesses of the event. Please stone me to death for my idiocy.'"

    This is one from me (I was trying to describe the goddess in just a single sentence): Hera is like the Greco-Roman pantheon/mythology version of Hillary Clinton.

    Mostly I just want to punch him (an internet troll). In the face. Not just any punch though, one of those Batman punches where the big BOFF! comes up.

    I miss Burger Time.. meh. That game was cool. You STEPPED on the food to make the burgers. It's kind of like how McDonalds makes burgers today.

    It's like trying to hypnotize a Doberman Pinscher by rhythmically waving a steak before its eyes.

    Jon-Erik Beckjord has taken the world's best photos of bigfoot, aliens, and Jesus in the clouds. He has discovered the meaning of life and solutions to strife in the middle east and missing shopping carts. Surprise, surprise, he is also a member of Mensa

    How to help Europeans accept their change in currency? Simple: Captain Euro, the coolest hero this side of Aquaman.

    No amount of good looks can make up for a level of stupidity that disintegrates flesh at close range.

    "What alternative fuel should we run our cars on?"
    Running it on idiotic YouTube comments will solve all our energy problems.

    "Insects are not animals."
    Roger, they are crunchy protozoans

    When I was 8 my aunt told me Arby's used rats to make their roast beef. I then asked my aunt if she would make me rat meat for dinner.

    (on racist techno music) Maybe the beats spell out racist slurs in morse code.

    "I never wear underwear, far too constricting."
    I don't wear pants for the same reason.

    (regarding the ban on trans-fats) "Bastards went too far when they banned rat poison and monkey feces in food.
    TIME FOR REVOLUTION"
    NYC rat poison is actually good for you... what did you think was responsible for making our rats so damn huge?

    (regardingthe abundance of UFO crash site conspiracies) Man, we really don't have to worry about an alien threat if all they can do is crash into ****.

    Three days after you get swine flu you will turn into a were-swine. Your only option is to kill the original were-swine using a silver bacon blade.

    Wow, it's in the low 60s today, but it's only going to be mid-40s tomorrow with a chance of a snow shower on Tuesday. I really thought we were finished with all the snow this year. Then again the weather's only going to be in the 30s and 40s until next Thursday.

    The 10-day forecast says it's going to be in the 50s and 60s the following week. I wish Mother Nature would make up her mind already.

    You and me both. We had over a week of beautiful weather, worthy of being called "Spring weather" with lots of sunshine and then it suddenly changed on the official first day of spring and today, so far, we have had sleet, snow and hail, combined with gusting winds and even sudden thunderstorms brewing up in the higher mountains.

    The only good thing that can be said about it was that the sun was peeking through occasionally between the wintery showers of whatever had decided to fall that time, and set the garden to be all sparkly for a short while, till the next set of clouds blew over and dropped their loads of precipitation.

    ...going to be nice this weekend here as well. Near 70° on Monday. Then, a real downturn for the next seven days with 50s and rain every day.

    Meanwhile even more cold for the Great lakes and Northeast this week with yet another possible major snowstorm for the east. Chicago is only a couple inches from breaking their all time winter snow accumulation record.

    Well, this figures. 73 F today and will be a low of 30 F Wednesday morning. Just when you think the roller coaster ride is over you come out of a nice stretch and see yet more Hill's and turns ahead. Add to that I'm having a horrid time rendering thanks to a New Error that shows it's ugly head whenever it pleases and my days are just peachy.

    And like Kermit say's, "Can't we all just be more Tea?" that ones for Misty.
